JR SEAWOLVES ACADEMY IS IN SESSION!

The Jr SeaWolves Academy was developed with the Erie Strike Zone Academy and a team of professional coaches, including athletes and coaches from Gannon University, to provide a unique training experience for our wolves.   

These academy sessions are designed to be separate from normal team sessions. These provide an independent training program that is not influenced by team dynamics that works in parallel to the coaches to strengthen the individual athlete and allow them in turn to strengthen their team. The academy practices have their own structure and a specific culture that is designed to build 7 tool athletes (see handbook for details on 7 tool athletes).

Athletes practice in academy sessions consistently and every 6 weeks athletes are tested on metrics to find where they can improve their game. Athletes at all levels can improve their game. We believe it is important to teach athletes to look at their weaknesses and understand how to overcome them with purposeful hard work and repetition in a positive and structured environment.  This type of environment develops consistency, mental resilience and promotes competition in an iron sharpens iron environment.
