Our Kids First Philosophy

We put kids first meaning their rights and interests are our foremost concern. We also believe our athletes are kids first and athletes second, and they need the opportunity to be kids first before emerging into adulthood.

Teaching Life Lessons Through Sports

Sports is an incredible vehicle to build character, mold future leaders and teach life lessons. The Steel Sports Coaching System teaches kids there is much more to gain from sports than winning and losing.

POSITIVITY & FUN

Lasorda Way
lasorda2

Baseball legend and Hall of Famer Tommy Lasorda was the inspiration behind developing the Steel Sports Coaching System. Coaching “The Lasorda Way” is Tommy’s belief in providing kids a positive and fun environment, an essential part of keeping them in sports so they can gain the character traits and life lessons that will make them successful in all walks of life. Tommy’s teachings of how to be part of a team and playing for the name on the front of the jersey are engrained in the Steel Sports Coaching System.
