March-June: We will start running SAQ camps for Edmonds Woodway Jr Football. These camps will be 1 Sunday per MONTH for approximately 2 hours. We are all set to train the next best high school athletes, and if your kids or others you know are looking for a couple of hours of speed work, they can register at https://playpass.com/ew-junior-football-and-cheer/training-camps-AmqCXrD
Saturday, March 30: I will be speaking at the National High School Strength Coach Association (NHSSCA) State Clinic at Arch Bishop Murphy High School in Everett. I will be representing the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) as well as Henry Jackson High School. Right now, I am working on my presentation about getting into the high school strength coaching profession (the good, the bad, and the ugly). It would be great to see some familiar faces in the crowd, but I haven’t received the registration link yet. Hopefully soon.
Friday and Saturday April 5-6: There is a possibility that I'll be going to Idaho for the NSCA Idaho State Clinic. If that happens, Coach Austin will be running the show. Speaking of Austin, you all will probably see him a lot more in the gym. He’s finishing up his internship with the University of Washington Football. Austin’s intern supervisor, Zack Cook, will also be bringing down his interns to check out our facility as well. They should be here Wednesday March 6 from 10am-noon.
Tues to Saturday April 9-12: I will be taking my kids to Arizona for spring break. Coach Austin will be running the show that week.
Saturday and Sunday April 27-28: I will be hosting the Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) Exam Prep clinic here at Sound Sports Performance and Training. I am having to do some specific marketing for it right now to make this happen, but if it goes, the gym will be closed those days. This event is open to everyone as well, but don’t come after my job if you get certified hahah.
