Training Leaders through Athletics (TLA) is an impact driven initiative that combines athletic performance and leadership development through camps, mentoring, workshops, retreats, and short-term mission programs. Athletics is used as a platform to define concepts such as the ultimate teammate, competition, and success in ways that extend far beyond the athletic field. Participants are challenged to engage their hearts and minds into becoming men & women of influence, and to hold themselves to a higher standard as they strive to fulfill their call to greatness. By connecting our message to pursuing a championship on the athletic field, TLA prepares athletes to pursue much larger championships throughout the rest of their lives.

TLA's programs are offered through a staged 5-Level Leadership Development program that is available to athletes & non-athletes alike over the course of 2-3 years.
