Youth Development

The Youth Development Program offered by Sports Medicine Associates is a unique curriculum-based program designed for the athlete as well as their parents.

The focus of this program is to introduce Middle School-age youth to growth-plate-friendly resistance training, overall fitness training, nutrition and sport specific training techniques that will give them an advantage as they progress to high school level competition.

The Youth Development Program is a six-week program that will meet for and hour and a half two times a week, in the evening. The curriculum will consist of lectures and activities to educate parents and their children.

The benefits you and your child will receive are endless. You both will gain an understanding of proper weightlifting techniques and safety issues when using a weight training facility. Each participant will learn how to set realistic goals for their training and the techniques to be successful in achieving those goals. Participants will receive nutritional information specific to active youth. The final two weeks of the program will be to assist each child in designing a specific program for their development in their particular sport.

Each program session can accommodate up to six athletes and their parents. Meeting times may vary but are tentatively scheduled to begin at 6 pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays in the SMA Sport Specific Training Center.
