We are a Sport For Development organization but what we do goes far beyond the playing field – we collaborate, we program with excellence, and we genuinely believe in the importance of the work that we do and the people that we do it with. Yes, we operate out of a 42,000 square foot sport facility, but we are so much more than a gym. Youth First, Always. Youth members are always our number one priority and their best interests are at the heart of every decision we make. We are unwavering in our commitment to their safety and potential. We Break Barriers. The marathon of life is different for every person and we work diligently to ensure equitable access to our programming, services, and opportunities. We strive to be leaders in breaking barriers, not records. Our Differences Make the Difference. Our strength is rooted in the diverse voices, ideas, and lived experiences of everyone who works and plays within our space. When everyone is included and feels welcomed to be themselves, we are more innovative, creative, and impactful. We Are Family. We care about each other, we look out for each other, and we are accountable to each other. We will make mistakes and we will fail but everyone is always working with the best intentions towards the same goal. We will always be there to pick each other up. Big Up Yourself & Those Around You. We are full of positivity! We believe in ourselves, have fun, give shout outs, and spread happiness. Build a Better Tomorrow Today. Things don’t get better by accident.
