The organization was established in 2017 by Coach Terry Robinson to provide each athlete an opportunity to reach his or her full potential by developing athleticism, an attitude that promotes health and physical fitness, and the achievement of competitive excellence through participation in track and field and cross-country competition.
Our track club serves St. Louis area youth ages 4-18 years old. Our club is a member of the USA Track and Field (USATF), Amateur Athletic Union (AAU), and The Ozark Association.
In July 2017 thirteen (13) of our athletes traveled to Des Moines, Iowa to compete in the AAU Jr. Olympics competing against more than 3,000 athletes. All thirteen (13) of our athletes broke personal records and two (2) of our athletes went on to become All-American Athletes! Since then, we have taken over 100 athletes to compete in national championships.
We also focus on our youth's mental health by providing opportunities for our youth to participate in a monthly aspiration session which focuses on creating a balanced life at home and at school. Professional speakers spend time with our youth coaching on the urgent issues our youth face today, such as, suicide, physical and digital bullying, social media addiction, drugs and alcohol, anxiety, self esteem and health and wellness.
GOAL:
• Train our youth to compete in local and state competitions and ultimately the AAU and USATF Nationals
• Promote integrity, accountability,, teamwork, and self-determination
• Encourage social responsibility, academic excellence, respect for others, and self-discipline
