Track and Field Training
Build speed and strength while also specializing in any of the following events: sprints, high hurdles, low hurdles, long jump, high jump, and triple jump.
General Speed Training
Whether your passion lies in one sport or all of them, Coach Earl will make you better by making you faster! Coach Earl has trained athletes who play basketball, lacrosse, football, soccer, gymnastics, and much more!
Summer Sessions
During summer sessions, larger groups of athletes from various schools and sports come together to get faster, learn about healthy and effective training practices, and socialize! Sessions are longer than during the school year (~3 hours per day) and usually a few days per week. Kind of like track summer camp!
