Program Highlights

  • Expert Leadership: Our program director is an elementary school adapted learning specialist, and all coaches have completed in-person training and background checks.

  • Small Groups: Athletes will work in small groups with a low player-to-coach ratio. Each group will have targeted learning objectives for each session and end-of-season goals.

  • Inclusive & Safe: We provide a welcoming environment that prioritizes the needs of each athlete.

Details for Parents:

  • Stay Nearby: Parents/guardians are asked to stay close to the SSSAS campus during practices.
