CATZ Has the Perfect Athletic Training Programs For You
Whether you are 8 or 80, CATZ will cater to your athletic needs.
CATZ (Competitive Athletic Training Zone), located in the Teamworks Acton building on Great Road, is dedicated to the athletic development, and general fitness, of youth through adults.
They design strength and conditioning programs for specific sports (football, baseball,) as well as general conditioning, not necessarily unique to a sport, but complement most.
Eight- to 11-year-olds are invited for basic athletic movement patterns (lateral, backwards, skipping, etc.), focusing on basic coordination to put them into a game-like setting. As kids begin to mature physically and mentally, the focus becomes more specific as more complex skills are introduced.
