For athletes going into 4-8th grades in the 2023-24 school year

Athletes can choose one sport: Basketball, Football, Volleyball, Soccer, Tennis, or Baseball/Softball.

Athletes will receive 6 sessions of coaching in the sport they choose during registration from high school and college coaches and athletes.

More importantly, participants will not only learn how to grow as athletes, but also how to change the game. Each day we will look at a character trait that is key to achieving both.

FEATURING LONG-TIME NEBRASKA FOOTBALL COACH, RON BROWN:

Even more important than learning the skills of the game, athletes will learn 3 key game-changing character traits from long-time University of Nebraska football coach Ron Brown. Coach Brown has been a part of 3 national championships with Nebraska and has coached almost 40 players into professional careers. But what makes Coach Brown truly remarkable is his understanding of how to coach athletes who are changing the game on and off the field or court.
