Excel Sports Group Helps Young Athletes Score A "Slam Dunk" In Life And Sports

    DALLAS, TX, August 09, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Today's amateur and grassroots sports environment offers a very competitive forum for young elite athletes to showcase their on-court or field skills and talents, however, this environment is often criticized for a lack of structure, organization, and the overall benefits of the programs and services being provided to young athletes. This criticism, unfounded or not, is rooted in the perception that the amateur and grassroots sports arena focuses solely on an athlete's on-court or field performance, while very little is being offered to enhance a young athlete's overall performance in life. Amateur and grassroots sports organizations that are committed to implementing a "total athlete" approach to sports training and development, can now receive an "assist" from Excel Sports Group, and help their athlete's achieve a "slam dunk" in life and sports.

Excel Sports Group offers a variety of life skills programs designed to add value to the amateur athlete sports experience. Excel Sports Group is committed to providing specialized life skills training and development programs designed to enhance an athlete's ability to achieve optimal performance and superior functioning in their personal life and sports endeavors. Some of the life skills training programs offered by Excel Sports Group include Student-Athlete College Preparation Planning and Development, Student-Athlete School/Life Balance Coaching, Time Management Training, Personal Growth and Goal Setting Training, Personal Responsibility and Decision Making Coaching, and Conflict Resolution and Crisis Management Training. These programs and the other life skills training programs offered by Excel Sports Group can be included as a an athlete training and development component in school athletic programs, amateur sports training programs, youth sports camps, and individual one-on-one athlete coaching sessions.

"At Excel Sports Group, we believe the key to developing athletes into well rounded, accomplished athletes and citizens begins with providing life skills training relevant to an athlete's performance in both life and sports." "By providing life skills training programs through schools, amateur sports organizations, sports camps and other athlete training and development venues, a young athlete's ability to succeed on and off the playing field or court can be greatly enhanced," says Kristi Stepteau, Founder and CEO of Excel Sports Group.
