🏀🏈 MULTI-SPORT ATHLETES ⚾️👟
At LV Steel, we strongly believe playing multiple sports helps develop stronger basketball players. Different sports challenge kids in different ways — building athleticism, toughness, instincts, competitiveness and confidence — while giving them an important break from basketball.
This weekend, Steel teammates Noah Kelly #21 (Parkland) and Ted Thomson #14 (Nitschmann / future Liberty) matched up on the middle school football field. Then we headed over to cheer on fellow LV Steel teammate Tanner Thomas #12 at his South Parkland vs. Bethlehem Saints football game. 🏈
We believe multi-sport athletes become stronger basketball players. Let them step away from the court. Let them compete in different ways. Let them develop new skills. Basketball will be there when they come back — and they’ll be better for it. 🏀💪
This fall, 11 of our 12 LV Steel players are competing in football, baseball and/or cross country 🏈⚾️🏃 — while squeezing in some basketball training when they can. 🏀
No pressure to play basketball year-round. No fear of falling behind. Just kids competing, developing and becoming better all-around athletes.
Different sports. Stronger athletes. Stronger basketball players. 💙🧡
