CELEBRATING 18 YEARS OF HELPING YOUNG ATHLETES REACH THEIR FULLEST POTENTIAL
tHE TRAILBLAZER METHOD: REACT, PUSH, DRIVE
The Trial By Fire Trailblazers don't just teach running, jumping and throwing; we teach a philosophy for life, built on the fundamentals of the perfect block start. For our athletes, success begins with a clear React, sustained Push and a focused Drive.
REACT
REACT: Our Origin & Vision
Just as a sprinter reacts instantly to the starting gun, the Trial by Fire Youth Track & Field Club was founded as an immediate, principled response to the toxicity in youth sports.
PUSH
PUSH: Our Philosophy & Training Intensity
The push out of the blocks requires maximum, sustained force. This symbolizes the candor and intensity of the Trial by Fire training program, where we meet goals with realistic effort.
DRIVE
DRIVE: Our Mission & The Journey
The drive phase is the sustained, powerful journey down the track that turns effort into victory. This represents the long-term mission and the enduring character we build.
