Playbook

About the Playbook

The Playbook was created from the athlete’s perspective, on an athlete’s journey through the game of sport, transitioning into the game of LIFE!

Education is our Playbook, Sport is our blueprint and LIFE is our game! 

We support our mantra by fostering a TEAM approach to YOU, the student.  Equipping you with the right tools to build a solid foundation for your Name, Image, and Likeness.

SAY WHAT!? 

OK, let’s gamify this process…

How to Play

Your goal is to incorporate 1-4 SSA Core Values of Success into your personal Playbook

1. Financial Literacy + 2. Personal Development + 3. Rent/Service + 4. Principles of Sport = Success

What is your goal?

Short term (1 – 6 mos.) or Long term (6 mos.+)

This example is an attempt to help determine or encourage your WHY? 

For example, you want to give yourself a shot at making the starting lineup this offseason with personal training. However, the cost of extra training outside of your team activities makes it tough for your family to afford it.

Sign up for membership and schedule your Discovery Session. This puts your play in action and you’ve extended your opportunity to better yourself and provide for your family. This qualifies you for the next step.

What’s the play coach!?

During this step, we call a huddle. You, your parent/guardian, and an SSA coach devise a game plan that includes 1-4 of the SSA core values to reach your goal (go for three to start a streak). Choose from our list of Work Hard options based on your discovery session, where you identify your short and/or long-term goals.

Sounds too easy? My best player…choosing their own play…for the win!? Let’s get it!
