Athlete development camp
The early years of athletic development are crucial. The problem is that most athletes start their athletic journey doing sport-specific training that skips the steps required to acquire basic physical literacy (think: running, jumping, throwing, catching etc). It's the equivalent of attempting to build a house with only a handful of tools.
We want to equip athletes to thrive in their chosen sport once they get older so we're introducing our "Tool Belt" line of camps. These 1/2 day outdoor sessions will help athletes add some important tools to their collection.

Don't just take our word for it. The need for more intentional training of fundamental movement skills is well documented. Check out this page with links to several articles on the topic.
The Right Way coaches possess an excellent knowledge set and are skilled at imparting it to the new players as well as helping experienced players improve the more nuanced skills of their game, all fitting into the LTAD (Long Term Athletic Developmental) model.
