H.Y.P.E
A Vision Born from Passion and Experience
At H.Y.P.E. (Helping Young People Evolve), we're more than coaches and trainers.
We are mentors and guides on a mission to unlock the full potential of young athletes.
The Genesis of H.Y.P.E.
J.R. Nelson, our founder and a former NFL player, turned his career-ending injury into a powerful catalyst for change. From personal trials to triumphs, J.R.'s path has been about using his love for sports to touch hearts, change minds, and shape lives.
Before H.Y.P.E. had a name, it was already making an impact. Officially founded in January 2022, H.Y.P.E. started with a single 7v7 team in the 5th/6th age division. Today, we are proud to have expanded to six teams, encompassing a range of ages and talents.
Our Approach to Personal and Team Development
What sets H.Y.P.E. apart is our unwavering commitment to athletes as decision-makers and members of a team.
In the world of sports, knowledge and perception are as critical as physical prowess. Our coaching staff, including individuals with collegiate and professional sports backgrounds, brings a depth of understanding that is rare.
We focus on teaching the 'how' and 'why' behind every movement, ensuring our athletes are not just physically adept but also technically sound and strategically aware.
Our Devotion to Nurturing All Aspects of Athleticism
Our philosophy extends beyond just physical training.
We believe in nurturing all aspects of athleticism, including mental resilience, teamwork, and leadership.
Our full-person approach is designed to prepare athletes for success both on and off the field, recognizing the importance of academic excellence, respect, and personal integrity.
HYPE trains your athlete on not only the physical skills but mental as well. If they see you have a quiet athlete they will help them be a leader. This organization actual cares about the athlete as a whole. Helping them understand the importance of TEAM, grades, respect, and much more.
