    Our Program has Six components:

    1. Evaluation Every athlete begins our program with a mandatory evaluation. This is used to assess current ability, identify strengths and weaknesses, and group athletes accordingly. Using the information from the evaluation, every athlete selects a program that is designed to fit their needs. This program will be some combination of Endurance, Strength, Power, Speed, Coordination, Balance and Flexibility training. Reviews: Immediately after the evaluation, our testing expert will discuss the results, and explain which program is the best for your athlete according to his or her needs

    2. Active Dynamic warm up
    The active dynamic warm up is the foundation for a well prepared athlete. Athletes will lean a scripted routine of the most effective ways to improve mobility, balance and stability, muscular/cardiovascular endurance, and motor skill coordination. The players will also learn the most economical way to warm up for team workouts and games.

    3. Flexibility Increasing an athlete’s range of motion will allow for a longer, more efficient stride when sprinting, and decrease the chance of injury. This leads to a faster, safer athlete.

    4. Speed Training
    Acceleration, top speed, change of direction, and deceleration are critical components in most sports. By learning proper techniques, an athlete will run more efficiently, thus making them faster and less likely to get hurt.

    5. Change of Direction Training
    Improving ones sense of balance as well as strength is a big part of enhancing an athlete’s change of direction. The other major component is knowing how to position each joint to maximally apply force into the ground in the most effective direction. This is a skill that is acquired over time with practice. Just as a martial artist never knows what his opponent will do next the athlete must be trained in a similar way o respond and change direction quickly.

    6. Plyometric Power Training
    Plyometrics refer to various forms of jumping exercises that train the efficiency of the athlete’s central nervous system, thus improving explosive power.
