We can all agree it’s important we teach our children to “Think Rationally” when making decisions.

If parents actually stepped back, looked at the current model of travel sports, used Rational Thinking, they’d be shocked at what a poor decision it would be to join it.

Our kids are learning from our decisions.

If you’re not the best player in your PE class, on your team, or in your school you have all the competition you need right in front of you for FREE!

Allowing athletes to discover 1st-step quickness laterally.

There was little instruction given- simply gain quickness and distance while maintaining a lateral orientation.

The low box creates front side leverage to push through (basically brings the ground up to the athlete)

Teaching the Lateral Run using the Cone Stack strategy which is a rehearsed pattern.

In the Speed Insiders Course break through the barrier of how this action has been taught in the past and teach you how actual biomechanics and laws of movement will govern how the Lateral Run occurs.

It’s sad for me to see development, the process, stages, failures, and true youthful experiences take such a back seat to today’s artificial status driven youth sports culture.

Tell me where the rewind button is- there was a much better time to be a kid involved in sports 😩

Multiple defensive footwork mistakes on this one possession. Here’s just a few…

Posture, positioning, and preparedness really do matter!

HS sports used to be High School Sports! We’ve turned it into a college prep program.
We’ve excluded late bloomers, multi sport athletes, kids truly wanting a HS sports experience. We’ve force travel sports down their throats. HS sports isn’t college prep- it’s HS Sports!

The First Speed Academy we opened in 1994 kicked off generations of athletes in our area training multiple days per week for years on end . These athletes actually trained.

They didn’t have travel sports interfering w/their development.

They were strong, fast, and healthy.

At the peak, we had roughly 60-athletes per day.

So many went on to play college athletics, some went on to professional sports, AND many went from being chosen last in PE class to being one of the first.

We supported their dreams and goals and helped them realize their potential.

Today, most athletes are making the choose to skip developing their athleticism so they can play watered down travel sports and not get strong, fast, and healthy.

We’re seeing the results of this choice and it’s only going to get worse.

So many athletes choose to leave their potential behind so they can chase instant gratification and fit in with the crowd- because the crowd is the norm, and the norm don’t train.

Of course there are players/families who survive it! They say it was the best thing they did

It doesn’t make it right!

AAU youth BBALL is badly broken- it’s taken away the foundation of youth development

And

Replaced it with an angry, aggressive, adult-driven business model.
