Advantage Training at Dexter Southfield
Advantage Training at Dexter Southfield provides an opportunity for student-athletes at all levels to optimize athletic performance and perform at their personal best.
While different sports offer different training options, the program provides development opportunities for year-round play in a variety of sports in one-on-one, clinic-style, and competitive settings. Working with our varsity head coaches and affiliated partners, athletes of all ages train with some of the top coaching staff in Boston in a trusted “home” environment using world-class facilities.
For many of our youngest players, Advantage Training encourages budding athletes to try a new sport or to improve upon skills learned during the school day in our sports and movement program. For middle school students, Advantage Training supplements and complements the School’s interscholastic athletics program, building strength, confidence, and skill. At the upper school level, Advantage Training prepares student-athletes who aspire to play at the collegiate level for potential athletic recruiting. At this advanced level, the Advantage Training curriculum includes education in health and wellness, sports psychology, nutrition, and strength and conditioning.
