Our Mission
Athletics are the vehicle we use to influence players of all ages in a positive way. We believe that our impact will go beyond the field and help players understand that their identity is not wrapped in their ability to play a sport. We encourage players to learn about priorities in life and to set them accordingly. We want them to be strong mentally, emotionally as well as physically.
Our core values are listed here. These are more than catch words or tag lines. We do our best to live by these and encourage our players to live by them as well. Hover over the letters to learn more.

Our Process
Give them a verbal cue
Good athletes react to what they see and can make changes on the fly. Give them a verbal cue as a reminder to make an in-game adjustment. Key phrases help trigger a player’s memory.
Show them a drill.
If the verbal cue is not enough, work with them one-on-one in a drill that focuses on the area they are struggling. Often times this step will help solve the issue they are dealing with.
Make a slight adjustment
In this step we make a small tweak to the athlete’s form. An example would be adjusting their head position, moving their hands or re-positioning their feet.
Make a wholesale change
When we get to this point the athlete needs to make a significant change. This is not always easy, but necessary. The good news is that the prior 3 steps should make this transition a little easier physically and ease the mental strain of a major modification.
