Blog Title: Reflecting on the Performance Combine — What’s Next in Your Athlete’s Performance Journey

The 1ST Earn the Edge Performance Combine is officially in the books—and what an incredible two days it was. From the energy and effort brought by our young athletes to the expertise delivered by our elite coaching lineup, this event was a powerful reminder of what happens when preparation meets opportunity.

Athletes of all ages tested their limits in linear speed, vertical and horizontal power, agility, and reactive ability—gaining valuable insights into how their bodies move, compete, and perform under pressure. But the Combine is just the starting line, not the finish.
