About Us

DeLuca’s Sports Performance is unique in its approach to sports specific training. Recognition of all of the factors that distinguish true champions – competitiveness, focus, drive, desire and, perhaps most important, the support group upon which they rely – led to the development of a distinctive training method that incorporates all of these differentiating factors into one exceptional sports specific training program. Athletes who use DeLuca’s Sports Performance benefit from a combination of talent, experience, drive, desire, focus, intelligence and sports specific training, all of which give them that critical “edge” that sets them apart.

Athletes interact both one-on-one and in small group mentoring sessions with experienced athletes and sports performance specialists. DeLuca’s Sports Performance offers its solutions via an on-demand membership model, resulting in costs significantly lower than traditional training approaches.

TRAINING STAFF

DeLuca’s recognizes that to offer the best method for training athletes, its coaches and programs have to be the best support system athletes can find. Training is individualized and each athlete is treated with the same care and attention that an elite athlete receives. Each coach is specially selected according to his or her experience in athletics, training background, core values and personality. Programs are designed under the supervision of an experienced Performance Director.
