A Letter From

Our Executive Director

Dear Parents and Athletes,

Given the current environment with the Coronavirus and the significant steps being made for social distancing in order to keep our children safe and healthy, we are canceling the remaining sessions of our Winter Clinic.

We are currently working on issuing some type of partial refund and we'll be back in touch with you over the next couple of weeks.

As of today, we are planning on starting our Spring League on April 19th depending on what the environment will be. We will keep you informed all along the way.

Our area has been hit hard by the Coronavirus. Please know that the safety of our athletes and their families is of the utmost importance. You all will remain in our thoughts and prayers!

FAQs

Is this program for serious athletes or the casual athlete?

It's for all of the above, from the athlete who wants to play at the top level to the kid who wants to just finish in the top half of his/her gym class during the President's Fitness Challenge. We will help them meet their personal goals.

What will my child learn?

They will learn proper running mechanics, the importance of warming the body up and how to do it the right way. They will be taught how to develop their core, which is the most important aspect of the overall athlete.

What does a typical session look like?

It is one hour long with a warm-up, three 15-minute segments on some aspect of speed mechanics, core development, overall body strength or change of direction. It all ends with a cool down and review.

Is the training specific to football or would all athletes benefit from the program?

Our training can be applied to every sport. The individual will increase their own personal performance and is sure to get a big boost in self-confidence!
