The Epley Athletic Performance Index (EAPI) consists of Speed, Agility and Power tests which are measured indoors on a basketball surface (for consistency). The 10 yard Dash measures linear Speed, the Pro-Agility (5-10-5) measures Agility and ability to change direction and accelerate, and the Broad Jump (Standing Long Jump) is a very good measure of explosive Power.

The EAPI has proven to be a valuable tool for identifying athletic talent. Using the three performance tests along with the size of the athlete, a comprehensive assessment is generated. The Index can identify athletic talent for power sports and help coaches determine an athlete’s potential as well as their and progress in training.

The EAPI identifies the athlete’s strengths and points out areas where they can improve. In addition, it is a great tool for coaches to audit their programming and obtain an unbiased measure of improvement.
