Real-World Example

From Sunday Planning Chaos to Systematic Season Development

Coach Chen runs a badminton academy with 58 athletes across 4 different skill levels: beginners (ages 8-12), intermediate juniors (13-16), advanced juniors (17-19), and adult competitive players. Previously, Chen spent 10+ hours every Sunday manually planning the upcoming week, checking which techniques each group needed to focus on, and constantly worrying about whether training sessions were building toward anything meaningful.

With Striveon's Season Plans, Chen created 4 concurrent development plans—one for each skill level—spanning 20 weeks each. When creating training events, relevant skill targets automatically populate based on the active plan. Each group now follows a structured progression path with clear developmental milestones for technique, tactics, and competition preparation.

Result: Sunday planning reduced from 10+ hours to 60 minutes, every session has clear developmental purpose connected to long-term goals, and athletes understand exactly how their training progresses toward skill mastery. The academy eliminated planning chaos while improving training quality systematically.
