Top Flight is the only club that made me feel like I’d been there for years on the first day. The coaches notice everything, and they don’t let you settle for okay.

06 / Who we are

Founded 2008.
Built on reps.

Top Flight began with 90 athletes and a single gym. Eighteen seasons later we train nearly 2,500 a year across three states.

We teach the skills and the key ingredients — hard work, confidence, commitment — that an athlete carries forward, on the court and off. Intense, controlled environments. Knowledgeable coaches. Real attention to the individual.
