Youth Athletics
Workshops, school partnerships, and club programs that give young athletes the movement foundation, injury prevention skills, and athletic confidence to compete at their best — and stay healthy doing it.
Serving Middle Schools, High Schools, Private Academies & Club Soccer Organizations Across New York City
Everyday Athletes® · Ages 10 & Up
Young athletes don't need a scaled-down adult program — they need training designed specifically for developing bodies and minds. The goal is to build the athletic foundation that makes every sport easier, every movement more confident, and every season healthier.
Minimum age. Tomas works with young athletes from middle school through high school — building the foundation that carries forward into adult sport and life.
Movement should be joyful. Every session is designed to challenge young athletes without burning them out — building a lifelong relationship with sport, fitness, and healthy competition.
A Core Focus
Young athletes are at a critical developmental stage where the right training protects long-term health — and the wrong training creates problems that follow them for years. Everyday Athlete's injury prevention programs are built on evidence-based methodology and tailored specifically to each athlete, team, and sport.
The ACL epidemic in youth soccer and basketball is real — and largely preventable. Our programs use validated protocols including FIFA 11+ and neuromuscular training approaches to reduce non-contact ACL injury risk in female and male athletes.
Functional movement screening identifies biomechanical risk factors before they cause injury — asymmetries, weakness patterns, and movement compensations that standard practice often misses. Early identification means early intervention.
Overuse injuries in young athletes are almost entirely a function of load — too much, too fast, too soon. We work with teams and coaches to build smart training loads, manage volume across the season, and educate on recovery.
For athletes recovering from injury, we bridge the gap between physical therapy discharge and full return to competition — coordinating with PTs, physicians, and coaches to ensure a safe, confident return to sport.
Sustainable injury prevention requires coaches who understand the principles. We provide education sessions for athletic staff on warmup protocols, load management, and the early signs of overuse injury — so programs continue to work when we're not in the room.
For eligible youth athletes, Tomas provides full documentation to support insurance reimbursement under applicable Medicaid HCBS, EPSDT, and waiver programs. Ask about documentation options during your consultation.
Middle & High School
Delivered on-site at your school or facility, these workshops are designed to meet young athletes where they are — building movement literacy, body awareness, and athletic confidence in a group setting. Programs are tailored to age group, sport, and season.
Ages 10 and up. Programs are designed for middle school through high school athletes.
Workshops can be delivered as single sessions, multi-week programs, or ongoing seasonal engagements — structured around your school's calendar and athletic schedule.
Private Schools & Academies
Everyday Athlete works directly with private schools and independent academies to design and implement comprehensive athletic development programs. From curriculum to delivery, we build programs that become part of your school's athletic culture.
NASM Performance Enhancement Specialist — programming grounded in evidence-based youth athletic development methodology.
Every school partnership starts with a thorough assessment of your existing athletic program, infrastructure, and goals — so what we build fits your environment and culture.
Club Soccer Organizations
Soccer demands explosive speed, rotational power, deceleration control, and the ability to change direction under fatigue. Everyday Athlete designs programs specifically for club soccer teams — from pre-season strength blocks to in-season maintenance and injury prevention.
NASM Corrective Exercise Specialist — identifying movement compensations before they become injuries.
Programs can be delivered at the full team level, by position group, or as individual athlete development packages within a club structure. All formats available.
The Everyday Athlete Approach
Every program begins with a thorough evaluation of the athlete or team — movement screening, functional assessments, injury history review, and sport-specific demands analysis. We don't guess. We measure.
Programs are built from the ground up around the assessment findings, athlete age and development stage, sport demands, and seasonal calendar. No templates — every program is designed specifically for the athletes we're working with.
A properly structured warmup is one of the highest-value interventions in youth injury prevention. We design, teach, and implement dynamic warmup protocols that prepare the body for competition and reduce injury risk — and we train athletes and coaches to use them independently.
Identifying and managing injury risk is built into every program from day one — through movement screening, load monitoring, corrective exercise, and ongoing communication with coaches and medical staff. Prevention is always more effective than rehabilitation.
Who We Work With
Long-term partnerships with independent schools looking to build or elevate their athletic development infrastructure.
Structured programs for clubs looking to add performance and injury prevention training across age groups and competitive levels.
Single or multi-session workshops for schools and teams that want focused, high-impact athletic development without a full partnership commitment.
