Athletes will be guided in the right direction in order to become a superior defensive threat. Our training is designed to teach the basic fundamentals of the specific movement patterns of the position and illustrate a clear understanding and education of how and why.
During our Linebacker training sessions, athletes can expect to be challenged both mentally and physically through high-level techniques and detailed instruction. We pride ourselves on our commitment to precision, emphasizing the small yet crucial nuances of body mechanics, positioning, and football IQ. Every drill is designed to sharpen focus, improve reaction time, and build muscle memory.
