Heath Welch provided the following info:

Next Level Sports Group exists to play a key role in the development of all athletes, their families, and communities using sports training to positively impact their lives. We believe that this development should focus on the whole student: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

In today's youth sports programs, there is such a push for a "WIN at all COST" coaching philosophy and making it competitive only for the "Best of the Best." By using this approach, many of our young athletes burn out by the time they start high school and are prevented from excelling in other areas of their lives. We believe in not pressuring our young athletes into deciding what sport that they have to commit to at a very early age, but in developing all athletes into their best while maintaining a fun and positive spirit.
