SPEED to Get Downhill Fast
To blow past defenders you need SPEED. To play tough defense you need SPEED. To be the person who doesn't give up or back down you need mental toughness and the SPEED to back it up.

Injury Prevention
Staying on the court means staying healthy to allow yourself opportunities to be out there. Reducing the risk of injury is a main focus of this program and we focus on good movement patterns and load management in order to do so. When it comes time for the court you will have been exposed to all the forces that your body will need to be able to adjust to so that way you stay healthy day after day.
