"Welcome" from The Directors
Hello Minnesota! We're thrilled to enter into our second year in Minnesota. In our first year, we have over 100 players in our program, and we're growing! We have been working hard to develop our players and have seen huge improvement. At the high school level, we have 3 NCAA DI recruits and one DIII. We have players selected to UA 150 and American Select. Our teams play in the most competitive tournament schedule offered to MN players and we've already hosted a top-tier college coaches clinic that all MN players were invited to attend. If you are a player who wants to play at the collegiate level, we have the experience and connections to help you achieve your #ultimategoal.
We travel Directors from the East Coast to train our players at our training sessions and we're exposing players to top level coaching. We have programming for players starting in second grade, and we believe in strong fundamentals supporting all our athletes. We are excited to offer players a top level program!
Please let us know if you have any questions or want to learn more about our program!
