2026 Fall Youth Athletic Performance/Foundations

Fall Youth Athletic Performance

Build the Athlete. Build the Foundation.

Your young athlete doesn't need to specialize in one sport to become a better athlete.

They need to learn how to move, control, accelerate, stabilize, produce power, and handle their body with confidence.

The Fall Youth Athletic Performance Program is a 6-week introductory training program designed for athletes ages 8–14 who want to become stronger, more coordinated, more agile, and more explosive.

Led by Coach Marc Oddo, C.P.T., INHC, athletes will be introduced to foundational strength and conditioning principles in an environment designed specifically for youth athletes.

What We'll Develop

ATHLETICISM Improve overall body control, coordination, movement quality, and athletic awareness.

BALANCE Develop stability and control that help athletes move efficiently and confidently.

CORE STRENGTH Build the foundational strength needed to transfer force and control the body during athletic movement.

AGILITY & MOBILITY Improve the ability to change direction, accelerate, decelerate, and move through a greater range of motion.

POWER Learn how to produce force quickly through age-appropriate explosive movements and training.

More Than Just Getting Stronger

Youth athletic development isn't about simply lifting heavier weights.

It's about teaching athletes how to use their bodies.

This program introduces young athletes to proper movement patterns, training techniques, and physical preparation that can carry over to baseball, softball, football, soccer, basketball, and virtually any other sport.

The goal isn't to create the biggest athlete in the room.

It's to create a better athlete.

Use the off-season to build the foundation.
