Starting January 8th!

bigger faster Stronger (BFS) STarts Now for 8th-11th grade

We are excited to get underway in our preparation for another run at the 2018 State Playoffs and it officially begins January 8th with the kick-off of our off-season BFS Training.

Our current schedule for training is:

M - High School (All Levels) - 5:30-6:30pm
T - 8th Graders - 3:30-4:30pm
W - High School (All Levels) - 5:30-6:30pm
Th - 8th Graders - 3:30-4:30pm
F - High School (All Levels) - 3:30-4:30pm

The first couple of sessions for all levels will be instructional to ensure that we are using sound fundamentals during our workouts, clarifying that expectations are set on a personal level, and the goals and targets are built around individual performance that will later translate into team gains.

The importance of this training is that it is done properly, in a physically and mentally safe environment, and benefits the individuals dedicating their time and effort. 

There will be NO TOLERANCE of:

  • Bad/Foul Langauge
  • Bullying/Belittling/Demeaning
  • Horseplay

These are selfish acts that are not and will not be a part of our team atmosphere.

There will be Support and Recognition of:

  • Leadership/Mentoring
  • Work Ethic
  • Consistency
  • Commitment

These are the expectations of our team, our leadership council, and will be the means for coaches to identify those that will make up our TEAM Council for 2018.

We will maintain our cost from 2017 for the 2018 calendar year with Upperclassmen (current 9-11th) $400 and incoming Freshman (8th Graders) $300. This again is for the entirety of 2018 covering the BFS off-season, spring workouts, summer workouts and in-season workouts leading up to the 2018 holiday break. (Yes, $400/$300 for an entire year of workouts, think about that when you assess your New Year's resolutions, imagine 12 mos of personal training for an average of $29.00 mo)
