The Hylyght Growth Tracker is designed to monitor growth velocity and physical maturity in youth athletes, focusing on the significant development differences that occur during puberty (ages 10–16).

This innovative tool is supports:

  1. Creating maturity-appropriate training: By implementing bio-banding athletes are grouped by biological age instead of by chronological age, which fosters competitive equity and better development.
  2. Reducing injury risk: By identifying athletes who are at high risk of growth-related injuries, training programs can focus on reducing strain and enhancing balance, mobility, and stability.
  3. Improving talent detection: By tracking maturity status, youth academies can avoid biases favouring early maturing athletes, and ensuring better long-term talent identification.
