Athletics

Triple Threat strives to develop partnerships that provide excellent athletic opportunities for students in under-resourced communities.

Triple Threat Athletic programs, events, and tournaments are developed to create confidence, character, and life skills in Aurora’s at-risk youth. 3T Athletics helps mold leaders on the court/field, in the classroom, and in their community. We partner with local school districts, city youth services departments, regional sports teams, professional athletes and coaches, volunteer mentors, and other organizations to provide a wide range of high level athletic training.  Empowering today’s urban youth to reach their athletic and academic goals.
