Building Speed, Strength, and Confidence — The Right Way

Leads_edited.jpg

The Jump Start Program at Champions Sports Performance is designed for young athletes who are ready to begin structured training in a safe, positive, coach-led environment.
 

Rather than rushing into advanced workouts, Jump Start focuses on teaching athletes how to move well first, building the foundation for long-term athletic development and confidence.

Who Jump Start Is For

Ages 7–11 | All Sports | All Experience Levels

Jump Start is ideal for athletes who:

​

  • Are new to structured training

  • Want to improve speed, coordination, and confidence

  • Need proper instruction on movement fundamentals

  • Play one or multiple sports

​

No prior training experience is required. Athletes are coached at their level and progress as they grow.

Why Jump Start Works

Foundations First - Progression Always

At this age, training should be intentional — not rushed.

​

Jump Start focuses on:

​

  • Proper running, jumping, and landing mechanics

  • Coordination, balance, and body control

  • Introductory strength using bodyweight and light resistance

  • Clear structure and repetition

  • Confidence through successful movement

​

This approach improves performance now while reducing injury risk as athletes grow.

Jump Start 1

Ages 7–8 + Less Experienced 9-Year-Olds

Jump Start 1 is designed for younger athletes or those newer to training who benefit from a slower pace and extra instruction.

​

Athletes will:

​

  • Learn basic sprinting and movement mechanics

  • Improve coordination and balance

  • Build confidence in a supportive environment

  • Be introduced to structured training routines

  • Develop foundational strength safely

​

This level prioritizes learning, confidence, and fun while building strong fundamentals.

Jump Start 2

Ages 10–11 + More Experienced 9-Year-Olds

Jump Start 2 is for athletes who are ready for a faster pace and more challenge while still emphasizing proper technique.

​

Athletes will:

​

  • Improve speed, acceleration, and change of direction

  • Refine sprinting and movement mechanics

  • Progress introductory strength exercises

  • Build consistency and accountability

  • Prepare for the transition into Total Performance

​

This level bridges the gap between foundational training and more advanced athletic development.

How Placement Works

We Help You Choose the Right Level

Athletes are placed into Jump Start 1 or Jump Start 2 based on:

​

  • Age

  • Training experience

  • Movement quality

  • Coach recommendation​

​

This ensures every athlete trains at the appropriate level — not just by birth year.

Coaching & Structure

Certified Coaches - Small Groups - Real Attention

Every Jump Start session is:

​

  • Led by experienced, certified coaches

  • Structured with a clear warm-up, training focus, and finish

  • Capped to allow hands-on coaching and feedback

  • Designed to keep athletes engaged and progressing

​

Parents can feel confident knowing their athlete is being coached — not just supervised.
