Elevate your game with targeted athletic training

Your athlete has the drive. They show up to practice. They put in the work. But something's missing: that extra step of speed, that burst of explosive power, that edge that separates varsity starters from the bench.

Here's the truth most facilities won't tell you: generic group training sessions don't build champions. Cookie-cutter programs that treat every athlete the same won't unlock your kid's full potential.

At Spade Athletics, our athletic performance training center in Fairview Heights does three things differently:

Proven methods for explosive speed and strength development

Personalized programs for your athlete's sport and goals

Real relationships with coaches who know their name

Get Assessed, Get Better

Precision training for every athlete

Transforming potential into championship-level performance across all ages and goals.

START GETTING FASTER

Precision training solutions that take the guesswork out of championship performance.

Breakthrough methods for dedicated athletes

Our athletic performance training near St. Louis uses science-backed protocols proven to develop explosive speed, strength, and mobility in athletes from 8 years old through college level.

Performance tracking for continuous improvement

Data-driven assessments that measure your progress every step of the way, so you always know exactly how much faster and stronger you're getting.

Mentorship that transforms potential

You're not just another number in a group session. Our coaches know your name, your goals, and exactly what you need to reach the next level.

Holistic athlete development

We don't separate speed and strength because your body doesn't perform that way. Get comprehensive training that builds complete, college-ready athletes.

Customized performance strategies

Every athlete is different. Every sport demands something unique. Your training program is built specifically for your goals, your position, and your timeline.

Competitive edge training

The difference between sitting the bench and earning varsity starts comes down to preparation. We give you the competitive advantage your competition doesn't have.

Level Up Your Game

HOW WE DEVELOP CHAMPIONS

Our proven three-step system turns raw potential into measurable results. We've guided hundreds of athletes to the next level. Now it's your turn.

Assess

Precision training that transforms athletes

Every athlete starts with a comprehensive assessment. We evaluate your current speed, strength, mobility, and sport-specific performance. No guesswork. No generic programming. Just an honest evaluation that becomes the foundation of your personalized training plan. From there, we build your roadmap to dominance.

Train

Individualized coaching, Measurable results

You'll train in a professional facility with state-of-the-art equipment, but that's not what makes us different. What matters is the relationship you build with coaches who are invested in your success. We track every metric, celebrate every improvement, and adjust your program as you get stronger and faster. This is what individualized coaching actually looks like.

Achieve

Unlock your competitive edge

Here's what happens when you train with purpose: You start making plays you couldn't make before. Coaches notice. Scouts notice. College recruiters notice. We've sent over 100 athletes to college sports and coached numerous state champions. Not because we promise miracles, because we deliver proven systems that work. Your competitive edge is waiting.

SPADE ATHLETICS OFFERED MORE THAN JUST TRAINING—I GOT SCIENCE AND TRANSPARENCY.

I also like the fact that each of my 3 boys gets 1-on-1 time with their trainer. Keep up the good work!

Great environment for training.

My son is 6'1 300lbs and was doing strength training for two years before this, but he looked slow on his feet. I'm happy and my son really enjoys going here and working with the coaches.

Spade Athletics made me the athlete and man I am today!

Spade was the driving force behind our 9-0 season, working the small details most coaches ignore that gave me the edge against my opponents. If you're an athlete gearing up for high school or college, this is the place to go.
