This type of training allows work on multiple different technical skills within the game in isolated and focused training groups. Having a coach dedicated to each station in the circuit, where every player can get personalized feedback, helps players make significant changes to their biomechanics and understanding in shorter time periods.

Technical development only occurs with high numbers of repetition. Technical development occurs faster when coaches can individually point out flaws, correct mistakes, and emphasize correct executions. We believe in long term athlete development, with a heavy emphasis on establishing a technical foundation. This is the only way to prepare players to succeed over the long-term, as they move to higher levels of play.
