Philosophy

Our Mission

Total Development Sports Academy is providing solid, fundamental athletic instruction while developing biblically-based character, work ethic and confidence in children desiring to excel in athletics and, more importantly, life.


Total Development Sports Academy operates under the belief that every individual is of infinite worth by virtue of being made in God’s image. Our main objective is to teach and instill biblically-based principles such as character, work ethic, and confidence while training children to excel in their chosen sport. We purposely keep classes small so that we can form positive personal relationships with each student. Our hope is that the ideas and principles they learn in their time spent with us, in addition to the encouragement and mentoring they receive, will help them succeed and to be a blessing to others as they walk through this journey called  “life.”

Character Development

Whether on the field or off, a person’s character, work ethic, and confidence are the intangible keys to success in every society. TDSA is not content to simply train players to throw harder, hit farther and run faster. We aim to instill life skills that will benefit a person once his or her playing days are over. At every lesson, time will be spent showing how character qualities such as focus, loyalty and honesty apply to everyday life. With biblical teaching as our guide, we hope to develop people who work hard, live well and are a joy to be around. We aren’t trying to raise your children, but we do desire to be a positive influence in their lives and support you as seek to raise them right.

Solid Fundamentals

Every sport can be broken down to a fundamental level. For instance, the bare essentials of baseball are catching, throwing, hitting and running. There  are proper mechanics needed to perform each of these aspects of the game at a high level and it is essential that these techniques be mastered if a child is to succeed on the field. At TDSA, we pride ourselves on teaching the time-tested fundamentals that will give your child greatest opportunity for success in his chosen sport.
