Tuition Assistance

Strive actively seeks to make our programs available to young leaders no matter their financial background. We therefore offer sliding scale tuition for Strive Clinic between $10 and $50, providing families the ability to choose the amount they are able to pay. 

While Strive fundraises and receives grants, please keep in mind that tuition payments allow our organization to keep running our leadership programs. We appreciate your honesty in this process. 

Families will choose their payment option when completing the Clinic registration form.

Our Culture

From the moment athletes arrive, they become immersed in the invigorating, inclusive and motivating culture of Strive. The program is supportive — inspiring athletes to improve their game individually and collectively. They are encouraged to take risks in a safe environment; to embrace failure and “brush it off.” This mindset cultivates growth in both athletic performance and leadership development.

Our Coaches

Our coaches create a unique community that defines the Strive experience. Strive coaches are current or former college athletes who create and lead intensive workouts and practices, provide 1-on-1 mentorship, and support the development of leadership skills  that can be used on and off the courts and fields. They encourage our student-athletes to find the best in themselves so they can inspire the best in those around them.
