Recent Mindset Results
Coach. Ellie is currently playing soccer in Costa Rica with the US Olympic Development Program. She was chosen as 1 of 18 players across the United States. I want to take a moment to thank you for the Basics Mindset program. Ellie has benefited from your program to put her in this position to not only captain her team but be one of the top scorers. We appreciate what you have done and look forward to future sessions. (Click on image)

High Jump State Champion, Bradley Richards. 6′ 10 1/4″
“Coach, I just won the state championship (all divisions) and set my PR at 6’10 1/4”. I have been stuck at 6’8” for 2+ years. Then we met. The Mindset principles were huge for me. I visualized my approach and run throughs 50x before the jump. I saw myself as a spectator would watching me go over the bar and celebrating afterwards. Thank you so much for helping me!” Bradley Richards.
Saturdays Officiated Games in Fruitport are also included. May 16 and June 6 at Fruitport HS
WE DO NOT CHARGE ADMISSION TO OUR EVENTS! The meme below is accurate. We do look for sponsors to offset the costs. Thank you to Our Sponsors! If you would like to help offset the costs of these games (officials, coaches, gym fees, insurance) please Venmo any amount to @basics-sports-1 and put in comments: SPONSORSHIP. THANK YOU!!
