Designing & Implementing A School-Wide Athletic Development Program

Description

Even if you are a personal trainer, have trained one particular team, or own your own gym, organizing a school-wide training program has very unique challenges.  This course is a detailed description of how to design and implement workouts and how to navigate scheduling and logistical concerns.

For the last 13 years, Exclerate Athletic Development has been training individual athletes, high school programs, entire athletic departments, and club programs, while also offering consulting services for schools and programs that are looking to develop their own school-wide program.  During that time, we have won 6 Ohio State Championships, in 5 sports, at 4 different schools.  One of our greatest accomplishments has been winning an individual or state championship, at every school, within the first four years and within the first cycle of athletes.  Along with winning 6 Ohio State Championships, we have also been the State Runner-Up 6 times in 6 different sports and to the Final Four 4 times in 3 different sports. 

On top of this, our athletic development program has been used by Midland Baseball in Cincinnati, Ohio.  During this time, we have won 5 AABC National Championships and finished Runner-Up once.

In this course, the following information will be covered:

  • Creating and measuring goals
  • Staffing a school-wide program
  • Being creative with available school spaces
  • How to train large groups simultaneously
  • Developing training workouts and schedules
  • Differentiating training for a variety of sports and athletes
  • Implementing a school-wide testing program
  • How to design different portions and phases of workouts
