BUILDING LEADERS  - NOT JUST ATHLETES

We imagine a world where sports become a vehicle for developing better people, reinforcing stronger communities, and creating long-lasting legacies of purpose.

Sport extends beyond mere competition, serving as a transformative force in building character and leadership skills. Under the Athlete of Significance philosophy, we develop players, coaches, and leaders who recognize that lasting impact comes from value, not just talent.

"For once you experience significance, success will no longer be your goal."

SUCCESS STORIES

Kellie Vanhoy

"I am Ryan and Grey's mom. I wanted to thank each of you for the effort you put into the players at the Post to Post+ camp in Shelby, NC, this summer. Thank you for boosting not only my kids’ skills, but more importantly, their confidence on and off the field. Weeks after camp, my kids still reference your coaching advice."

"Ryan’s coach even sent me a text a week or so after camp that said, ‘whatever he is doing, keep it up.’ I attribute that comment to what he learned from you."

Warren Koehler

"Steve Richards is the kind of coach parents hope their child gets to learn from. He challenges players to work hard, take responsibility, and grow both on and off the field.  The environment is demanding but fun, with thoughtful coaching that pushes players outside their comfort zones and helps them discover new strengths. With support from experienced college and former players, Steve provides a high-quality, trustworthy development experience for families."

Ken Robinson

"Christian is a wonderful coach and leadership coach. He took on working with my son to help him develop his leadership and communication skills. The results were fantastic. In a few weeks, I saw my son become a better communicator with adults and a leader with his teammates. Working with Christian, you will receive inspiration and activities to help you improve continually. Christian is a "Coach" who will believe in your child."

“This program provides the framework every coach needs to move from transactional coaching to transformational leadership. Highly recommended.”

It equips coaches with the mindset, tools, and intentional structure to develop not just better players, but stronger people who lead with purpose on and off the field.

Every coach should make this part of their growth plan"

 
Coaching the Bigger Game
Past Camp Participants

“Best training I’ve had all summer. Learned how to own my preparation and lead on the field.”  -Augusta, GA

“I came for soccer training, but I left with a clearer purpose and a better understanding of what it takes to play at the next level.” - Bath HS

“This wasn’t just about getting better at soccer. It challenged me to grow mentally, be a better teammate, and lead with confidence.” - Laguna Creek HS.

Post to Post+ Nexl Level
Ed DeCosta

"Christian stands tall at the crossroads of two important bodies of knowledge - sports and professional coaching. This unique combination makes Christian a tremendous blessing to soccer clubs, schools, and other related institutions. He knows the game. He knows that mastery of the game is about information processing and decision making. He can teach players and coaches to maximize their performance. That's pretty cool."
