Cross Training Athletics (CTA)

Cross Training Athletics (CTA) is a school based 9 week character education and mentoring program for student athletes.  CTA's character education program aligns with the Whole Child model which integrates education and health to improve the cognitive, physical, social, and emotional development of students. Coaches assist youth in developing physical, social, emotional and cognitive skills through athletics, and CTA supports this by targeting specific character qualities throughout the season. CTA provides professional development sessions to coaches prior to implementation, and it supports them as they implement this program with their athletes. The activities are designed to assist athletes in developing character values such as perseverance, courage, resilience, loyalty. It is also designed to cultivate an athlete’s intrinsic motivation to overcome adversity. Unit cost:  Base fee + actual cost + Administrative Fee.
