LETSGO Get It / LETSGO Hoops (Skills Training)

LETSGO Get It is a program that brings high level skills training to the athletes of our community. Each sport is like a subject in school and skills trainers are like tutor helping all transcend their skill sets. Depending on the sport, sessions will be 1 on 1 or up to groups of 5, so that each athlete can get the personal attention they deserve. Skill training sessions are catered to the skill set and talents of comparable players, breaking down their game to the fine details. Expanding these young athlete’s minds to think the game instead of just playing it. Implementing and explaining concepts that their peers aren’t ready for and educating them on proper nutrition and mental wellness that they can carry with them past their athletic days. These trainings also help college bound athletes prepare for their collegiate athletic experience by raising the intensity, expectation, and attention to details that will be put on them at the next level. 

Temple Total Fitness has agreed to provide physical and nutritional training to some LETSGO athletes. Physical trainer, Rev. Ron Gaston, has made incredible impact on this community over the years wearing his many hats. It’s no surprise that he once again extends his hand to help his community, and our great pleasure to collaborate, grow, and learn with him.

LETSGO Get It camps and clinics will be all inclusive for both males and females, ages 8-18. Camps and Clinics will be held periodically, providing all kids a chance to get out, get active, and get better; teaching the basics of sports and core life characteristics such as hard work, team work, perseverance, and patience. We will also be contacting organizations that are having sport camps and clinics, such as Michigan City Soccer Team, and providing funds for kids that would love to go but just can’t afford it. Providing 5-10+ kids with a opportunity they might not have had otherwise. Already previously done with the LTG basketball camps. 

Currently we only have one league in operation and that’s LTG Summer League, which LTG (Love The Game) has a sponsorship package which gives them the rights to the name of the league. Its the premiere adult league in Northern Indiana in the summer time. With a healthy mix or current and past pro players, current and past college player (all levels), and the top street ball talent from the area, the league has no shortage of great games. LTGSL only runs June and July, because that’s when the college and pro players are home. As a ex-professional myself, I know how hard it is to find consistent high level games in the off season in this area. The leagues solves this problem with 1-2 game scheduled per week. We would love to offer leagues at different times during the year for all ages. Once upon a time the county was full of leagues for all sports and ages. The rise in club sports might have something to do with the fall in registration for these programs, but they are still a necessity in all communities.

Mentoring and building life long connections is part of training that just comes with the job. Spending so much time with a person that’s constantly pushing you out of your comfort zone to exceed even your own expectation of yourself, its hard not to create a bond. LETSGO trainers know they are in a position of influence, so not only do they have to be knowledgeable on what they are training but show high moral fiber and character in everyday life. We are not only grooming the athletes of tomorrow but also the leaders of future.
