About Us
The National Performance Institute and Zybek Sports believe every athlete deserves a fair shot, no matter their age, sport, location, or level of access.
​
We were founded with a simple mission: Close the gap between talent and opportunity.
Too many athletes are evaluated by hype, geography, or access instead of verified performance. NPI changes that by delivering standardized testing, clear development insight, and trusted reports that athletes, families, coaches, and programs can rely on.
​
If development isn’t measurable, it’s just opinion.
OUR MISSION
Equip athletes, families, coaches, and programs with the knowledge, tools, and strategy to:
​
• Understand an athlete’s true strengths through verified data
• Establish a clear, repeatable baseline and track development over time
• Make smarter training, coaching, and pathway decisions
• Create more opportunities through credible, objective results

If development isn’t measurable, it’s just opinion.
THE STANDARD WE SET
NPI establishes a clear, repeatable testing standard built around the SAT®6.
Together, NPI and Zybek Sports help athletes create trusted performance data through standardized testing, consistent protocols, and measurable results.
​
The Presidential Score gives each athlete a clear starting point. From there, athletes can track progress, retest over time, and build toward deeper verified performance data.
​
Designed around six foundational movements, the SAT®6 creates a simple way to measure speed, agility, power, and strength with consistency.
​
This system measures performance, not hype — creating a clearer path for development at every stage.
