We Help Kids Succeed in Sports and Life
What We Do:
We help kids 14 and under build a strong athletic foundation with our proprietary PLAY training methodology so they can maximize their performance and succeed in their favorite sports.
What Parent’s Are Saying:
“Southern Maine Athlete Academy has provided my children aged 5 and 10 with an experience unlike any other sports-based program. In their Little Athlete Academy, they use fun and engaging movement activities to build strength, endurance, and confidence in children. We are very appreciative of the progress they have made with our children.” -Kayla B., Grateful Mom
“My son takes part in Southern Maine Athlete Academy’s Little Athlete Academy. He is on his 3rd round of this program and he still loves it. He has grown leaps in bounds in his confidence and athletic ability. Each time he goes there is something new, different, and exciting to do. He looks forward to it so much. I am so glad we found this program, it is by far the best one we have had our son attend.” -Ariel G., Ecstatic Mom
“Its clear Southern Maine Athlete Academy is passionate about working with kids and bringing safe fitness to them! They keep the kids challenged and engaged with the variety of movement exercises, games, and challenges each week. The coaches bring great energy and excitement to what they’re teaching and it really makes for a great class for kids! Mine look forward to it each week.” -Martine K., Appreciative Mom
From the Owner’s Mouth:
“What I’ve found is that most parents of kids 12 and under struggle to find high-quality sports programs for them. They can’t seem to find programs that focus specifically on their kid, and if they do, they are usually led by disorganized, unqualified, and inexperienced coaches.
What they really want is a program designed specifically for their kids, led by qualified coaches, who are going to help them succeed in their favorite sports. With this in mind, most lean on their sports coach for guidance. They pay for private lessons or ask for drills the kid can do on their own, not realizing that they may be doing more harm than good.
The real problem is they are asking the wrong people for help and focusing on the wrong type of development. Their sports coach knows a whole lot about their individual sport, but not nearly as much about holistic youth athletic development, and by specializing too early in one sport, they are missing their chance to develop a strong athletic foundation, a chance they can’t get back later on in life.
What they really need is a program designed specifically for their kids, delivered by competent, qualified, and experienced coaches, that will allow them to build an athletic foundation that helps them succeed in their sport, improves their confidence, and maximizes their athletic potential.”
