Football Performance Program

Our Football Performance program is specifically designed for football athletes. Training combines strength and speed development with movement work that reflects the demands of the game.

Led by Coach Phalen Sanford, athletes train with a coach who understands football from firsthand experience at the collegiate and professional levels. Programming is adjusted based on each athlete’s age, position, experience, and time of year.

Depending on position and goals, training may include:

  • First-step acceleration and short-distance speed

  • Linear and lateral change of direction

  • Backpedal, shuffle, crossover, and transition mechanics

  • Position-specific footwork and movement patterns

  • Explosive jumping and power development

  • Strength for blocking, tackling, contact, and body control

  • Sprint mechanics and top-end speed

  • Offseason, preseason, and in-season programming

A defensive back does not move the same way as an offensive lineman, and a wide receiver does not have the same physical demands as a linebacker. Our goal is to develop the qualities each athlete needs for their position while also building a stronger, faster, more complete football player.
