IAC's founders have coached high level sports for over 20 years. We've seen talented, committed athletes forced to quit or play at a lower level due to barriers that are out of their control.
At IAC we strive to eliminate those barriers! Athletes should be evaluated by their commitment, athleticism, and determination; not by their fiscal ability. We will infuse our athletic communities with passionate coaches who will help introduce and properly train athletes in multiple sports, as early as possible. Our coaches realize and embrace the importance of mental health and the impact it has on creating a holistic athlete, we merge both the physical and mental aspects of each sport for both hold equal importance.
We strive to put the focus on the individual athlete.
Primary Barriers
-Annual cost of club/travel team.
-Annual cost of travelling on a club/travel team.
-Transportation to and from practices and events.
-Starting fundamental and micro training in late.
How Can IAC Help?
-Provide fiscal help for eligible athletes.
-Provide fundamental micro coaching clinics to schools, individuals and travel teams.
-Host immersion camps to introduce athletes to multiple sports as early as possible.
