Athletics

Pursuing passions and challenging limits through our athletic programs grows character in our kids, a place to gain ability from opportunity.

Triple Threat’s programs are created and run by our volunteers in their area of passion and expertise. Each program has an engaging group mentoring environment which allows students to develop an encouraging relationship with our volunteers. We strive for a 1:2 volunteer to student ratio which makes it easy for our students to be inspired and grow. The result is empowering youth to develop confidence, character and life skills.
