WINTER FOOTBALL SKILLS (GRADES 1-4)

unnamed image

Most players wait until the spring to pick up a football. Elite athletes start now. Our Winter Football Skills program is designed for athletes in Grades 1-4 who want to get better while the competition is taking a break. Whether your child is just starting or is already a standout player, our small-group setting ensures they get the attention they need to grow.


At Elite Sports Performance, we don’t just run drills. We build better football players. Our program moves beyond the basics to focus on what actually wins games:


What We Focus On:

  1. Fast Feet & Agility: We teach athletes how to move quickly and change direction without losing speed.
  2. The Passing Game: We work on crisp route running and the best way to catch and keep the ball.
  3. Smart Defense: We show athletes how to be in the right spot at the right time to make big plays.
  4. The Elite Mindset: We help kids build confidence and learn how to think like a pro on the field.


Our goal is simple: We want your athlete to walk onto the field this spring feeling faster, stronger, and more confident than ever before.


Program Details:

  1. When: Tuesdays from 6:15 PM – 7:00 PM
  2. Investment: Only $25 per session

MLK AND PRESIDENTS DAY CAMP

unnamed image

Most kids see a school holiday as a day off. They stay home or sleep in. But the best athletes see it as a chance to get ahead.


On MLK Day and Presidents Day, Elite Sports Performance is opening its doors for our high-intensity Football Camp & Combine. Our holiday camps are different. We don’t believe in having 100 kids on the field at once. When a camp is too big, kids spend most of their time waiting in line.


At Elite, we do things the "Elite Way":

  1. Personal Coaching: Because our groups are small, our coaches see every move your athlete makes.
  2. Non-Stop Action: We pack a lot of training into 90 minutes. Your athlete will be moving and learning the whole time.
  3. Skill Mastery: We focus on the small details—like footwork and agility—that help athletes win games.
  4. Combine Testing: Get real data on your athlete's speed and agility so you can see them improve.


Give your athlete the professional coaching they deserve in Lake County’s premier facility.


The Schedule:

  1. MLK Day: Monday, Jan 19th
  2. Presidents Day: Monday, Feb 16th


Times:

  1. Grades 1-4: 10:00 AM – 11:30 AM
  2. Grades 5-8: 11:30 AM – 1:00 PM


Investment: $39 per athlete (or save money and get both camps for $69)


Don't let the competition get a 24-hour head start. Space is strictly limited to 15 to ensure every athlete gets the coaching they need.

unnamed image

Touchdown Tykes is a fun, high-energy football fundamentals program designed specifically for children aged 4-6 years old. Our focus is on providing a safe, positive, and non-contact environment where young athletes can learn the essential building blocks of the game.


PROGRAM FOCUS:

  1. Motor Skills & Agility: Activities centered around football-specific movement, changing direction, and coordination.
  2. The Big 4 Fundamentals: Introduction to the proper techniques for throwing, catching, running the ball as well as proper defensive positioning and technique.
  3. Basic Football Concepts: Simple understanding of position (offense vs. defense), field layout (end zones), and team play (huddling and listening to a coach).
  4. Safety & Fun: All drills are non-contact (flag-based) and designed to build confidence, encourage teamwork, and instill a genuine love for the game.


The program aims to develop more than just football skills; we strive to foster social skills, listening abilities, and a positive attitude in every "Tyke" as they explore the excitement of the gridiron!


PROGRAM SCHEDULE:

  1. Time: 6:00-6:30 pm on select Thursdays this winter
  2. Dates: December 11th, January 8th, & Feb 12th
  3. Registration Options: $23/session
