Speed & Agility

Speed & Agility registration is open from Monday, March 10th and run through Sunday, 6/1 – register today!

Program Overview:

After the success of our inaugural 2024 program, UTREC is excited to bring back our Speed & Agility program to get our kids moving while they gain speed and flexibility (a foundation for all sports).  Has anyone ever said “that player is too fast and way too agile?!”  We think not! 

This program ran on Monday evenings at Finn Park from 6/23 – 7/28 in two sessions based on your child’s grade for the upcoming school year (2025/26)*:

  • For K – 3rd graders: 6 – 6:50pm
  • For 4 – 8th graders: 7 – 7:50pm 

*Please note, grade groupings are subject to change based on registration numbers if we need to balance out classes.

Classes will be hosted by UTREC parent and NHHS Football Coach, Mr. Brad Banken.  Each week, kids will start off stretching before moving through stations learning fundamental drills to improve their (you guessed it) – speed and agility.  These will be done leveraging hurdles, bands, parachutes, ladders, medicine balls, etc.  There will also be a weekly relay race or game, and early and end-of-session testing to chart improvement! 

Two notes: 1) each child will be provided a technical t-shirt to wear weekly and 2) volunteer parental participation is critical to the success of this program, so please consider volunteering when registering to help run a station.
