ABOUT US



COACH DAVE



I’m Coach, or Coach Dave, but my given name is David Yordy. Back in the day, I was an All-State basketball player in Massachusetts. Over the past 22 years I have coached basketball, soccer, volleyball, and baseball at the high school level as well as other sports at the elementary level  I’ve been teaching Homeschool PE Classes since 1998! I began coaching with the purpose of investing in the lives of young people, to help them build character, as well as teaching the skills necessary to succeed in each sport. I’ve had the pleasure of coaching two State Basketball Champions and 2 National Homeschool Championship teams, but my greatest reward is seeing athletes grow in character!



philosophy statement



We believe that sports and competition have much to offer athletes, including some TLC.


"T" is for Training,

"L" is for "Love of the Game," and

"C" is for Character Building


Training is 3 Fold

Athletes need training of the heart. The Heart needs training in Character. We use Character Qualities as taught by ATI. Athletes also need training of the Mind (how to think properly and effectively) and Body (physical skills, strength, and conditioning).


Love of the Game

Love of the game grows as athletes learn the fundamentals, skills and strategies necessary for success in each sport. The training of the Heart, Mind, and Body build passion and confidence, which ultimately breeds love of the game!


Character Building

Competition is the p"pressure cooker" which reveals the training of the Heart, Mind, and Body! Practice and Training build character, and then competition reveals the Character of their Heart.


We also believe that sports are not an end all, but rather a means to an end. The Angels endeavor to use the sports and talents God has given us to grow as individuals, and as a team, and then to minister to others!



Testimonies







“We have done PE with Coach Dave for 16 years. I love that the kids are introduced to a wide variety of sports. I also love that they get to play all the playground games that I remember as a child. Tuesday "PE day" is a day we all look forward to. My kids (and I) have met wonderful families and made good friends through PE.”
--Stacy Townsend

PE is my boys' favorite home school class. Coach Dave is a wonderful teacher. He creates a fun, accepting environment for every child no matter their skill level. Fellow students encourage one another and learn to cooperate as a team. The wide variety of games and sports they learn along with the friendships they develop makes PE a must for our family.
--Vicki Angle

"My kids have all enjoyed Coach Dave's fun, educational physical education classes and sports camps, as well as his caring, laid-back style. They have learned the rules of many different sports and have also found lasting friendships. Than you, Coach Dave!"
--Suzanne Berg

Our boys have been in PE classes with Dave for 15 years and have been able to learn skills in sports and games they otherwise wouldn't have experienced. Our boys have had a lot of fun in Dave's classes and look forward to them every week. They're definitely the highlight of their week.
