Summer Program - 6 week program combines the mental, spiritual, and physical

Summer Program

  • Full of fun and learning 
  • Education 
  • Athletic development 
  • Spiritual/Mental/Social/Emotional/character development
  • Camaraderie, collaboration, building skills, etc.
  • Curriculum 

The GameBreakers Academy Summer program serves as an introduction to GameBreakers Academy and  develops young men through three core avenues: education, physical and spiritual.  We have developed an inclusive curriculum guide that will help middle school student-athletes as they work toward  their academic, spiritual, and professional goals, with the ability to be adapted for other age groups.

 

– Multi-Sport Performance Training and Development

    • Participants will…

– Educational opportunities and development of relational skill sets

    • Participants will learn about a variety of careers from our staff and from men who are currently in various professions. Each professional will share their personal and professional experiences in a way that engages, encourages, and challenges the young men to create vision beyond what they currently have and make them aware of new pathways and possibilities.

– Character and Leadership development 

    • Participants will learn about GameBreakers Academy Core Values: Brotherhood, Self-Respect, Truth, Service and Love
    • They will construct their own core values and mission statements to develop their leadership skills.
    • *Breakthrough….mental..physical..spiritual..

Our Summer Program is a six-week program held every summer in LA and KC. To combat the devastating effects of summer learning loss, the program includes development in the areas of education, athletics,  and character formation. Instead of falling into distraction during the summer, we provide opportunities to keep their minds active, their bodies moving and their hearts pursuing the things of God. Through the program we convene our athletes into cohorts and focus on training them to be dominant on the field, excellent in the classroom, and confident in who they are in every other room. 

We have developed an inclusive curriculum guide that will help middle school student-athletes as they work toward  their academic, spiritual, and professional goals, with the ability to be adapted for other age groups.

Camps

Camp Purpose: GameBreakers Academy Skills Camp is designed to provide a high-quality camp to help enhance the skills of football athletes of the Greater Kansas City area. This is a non-contact camp that will build confidence through detailed coaching. We will teach proper technique and fundamentals paired with elite level competition.

Camps are focused on fun, skill development, fundamentals and are affordable and available to everyone. We focus on the basics of the sport as well as the basics of strong character. Through high-caliber coaching, and fun memories that last a lifetime, every camper leaves with new tools and relationships. We believe you can build anything on a solid foundation. 

Our largest gathering, camps provide the perfect opportunity for young athletes on the cusp to “taste and see” the power of their potential. Following Camp, we invite athletes to take the next step and become GameBreakers. 

In the future we see Camps evolving beyond athletics into the realms of leadership development and other arenas of life.
