Briarwood Athletics Performance Program (BAPP)

Empowering Athletes. Elevating Performance

Proverbs 21:31"The horse is prepared for the day of battle, but victory rests with the Lord."

Success requires both diligent preparation and unwavering trust in God. While we are called to plan and work faithfully, true victory and security ultimately rest in God's sovereign hands.

A Message from the Head
of Athletics 
       

Throughout my career as both a player and a coach, I’ve had the privilege of working alongside some of the world’s most elite athletes and some of the best youth athletes—from MLB All-Stars to Gold Medal winning Olympians and young high school athletes who have gone on to play Major League Baseball. I’ve played with them, trained with them, coached them, and learned from their relentless pursuit of excellence.

In my short time at Briarwood, I’ve seen many young athletes who show strong sport-specific skills, but their overall athleticism is holding them back. Athleticism is necessary to succeed in any chosen sport and the good news is, athleticism can be developed. 

Using objective sports performance technology, I’m excited to begin implementing this approach to help our athletes unlock their full potential—not just in their sport, but as well-rounded competitors.

We are thrilled to launch the Briarwood Athletics Performance Program (BAPP)—an exciting new initiative designed to give every athlete the opportunity to unlock their full potential.

BAPP is built on the principles of Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD), a proven system used by leading Olympic nations to nurture and develop well-rounded, high-performing athletes. While many of our young athletes already show strong sport-specific skills, BAPP will focus on enhancing overall athleticism—power, speed, strength, coordination, mobility, and injury resilience—that forms the foundation for long-term success.

This program marks a new chapter in Briarwood Athletics, and we can’t wait to see the impact it will have on our student-athletes both on and off the field.
