Lessons Beyond the Game
I wish that I had learned these lessons in high school and would have had teammates learning it right alongside me. This curriculum would've jump started my career and would have helped me mature as a young man so much more effectively and efficiently had I taken a course like this with teammates.Â
This isn't a leadership course — it’s a personal development course that connects your team together through real discussion and experience. There are aspects of leadership throughout the curriculum, but this course is a holistic approach that teaches athletes, coaches, and teams how to work together can maximize their potential and find purpose in athletics.

— Alec Ingold
"This program has a meaning, purposefulness, and the athletes are able to make a direct correlation to their lives as both athletes and individuals. The things talked about and discussed within the book and the program the athletes are able to apply immediately to their own lives."
Â
"This program really helped me understand the power of my mind. When it comes to practices, games, lifts, or even off days, I can control how I approach each thing and how I handle it will impact my overall mental approach to my sport. This was a great program, and I strongly recommend it!"
"I believe Alec Ingold's mindset program can be the difference between being a good athlete and a great athlete. This program helps athletes like me learn how I can be the best version of myself on and off the court along with impacting all those around me positively and I am very grateful to have gotten the opportunity to be a part of it."
"Alec is a motivator and is very passionate about leadership. As a coach who has read quite a few books on leadership, a lot of what was mentioned here reiterated my thinking on the topic. I really enjoyed the pyramid of success that he shared on the final day along with his stories tied into each crucible."
"I felt like each crucible had a meaningful and purposeful connection to both the athletic and life side. The athletes could relate, make direct correlations to their lives and implement right away."
