Excel with XL
Our Story
The XL Performance programme provides speed and agility training, specialising in American Football. At XL we have trained athletes from NFL Superbowl champions Charles Omenihu and Will Blackmon to Bundesliga star Michael Olise. Other notable athletes who have trained at XL Performance:
DeShon Elliot - Current NFL Player

Onis Konanbanny - University of Tennessee commit
​
At a grassroots level, we welcome first time American Football players through our community and schools programs. Many of our athletes have gone on to further their education via football based scholarships in the USA. XL Performance provides an environment for beginners to learn key American football skills and help lay the foundations to excel at the next level.
​
We will always offer an opportunity for young people to play the sport for fun and to gain experience in a sport that the United Kingdom has minimal opportuities for.
