An Inside Look Into Back the Team Mentorship
If you’re a parent of a young athlete, you’ve seen firsthand that the challenges go far beyond training. It’s navigating nerves, confidence ups and downs, and the pressure kids can put on themselves as they chase big goals.
We do our best to guide them, encourage them, and keep things in perspective. But connecting with mentors they admire? Athletes who’ve actually lived the moments they’re dreaming about? That’s the real game changer.
That’s exactly why Back The Team is becoming one of the most trusted, impactful mentorship experiences in youth sports today.
A community that fuels growth
Back the Team connects young athletes with Olympians and Paralympians through practical mindset mentorship grounded in real experience.
Athletes learn how to:
• Manage nerves before competition
• Build confidence that lasts longer than one good result
• Reset after mistakes
• Stay focused when pressure builds
• Raise the bar through intentional goal setting
Parents can feel the difference at home. Athletes carry themselves differently. They speak about training differently. They show up with more intention and more belief.
What families are saying
Families consistently share that the shift they see in their athletes is immediate and meaningful.
“My daughter came away from Back the Team believing in herself in a way I’ve never seen before. Being part of Back the Team has restored her confidence, excitement, and joy for her sport. It’s given her a community where she feels included, inspired, and ready to take on the season.” — Debra D., Parent
“I played D1 football and there was nothing like this when I was coming up. You can say things as a coach and parent, but it’s different hearing them from someone who’s actually been there. It’s really special.” — Julius P., Parent & Coach
“Connecting with amazing athletes is helping my daughter realize she’s in the driver seat of crafting her future story as a powerhouse who loves the snow.” — Kimmie G., Parent
Confidence is contagious. And belief grows fastest in the right environment. If you want your athlete surrounded by the kind of mentorship that builds real confidence, Back the Team is where it starts.
