Grove City College Elevates Entire Athletic Department with Volt
/
Grove City College, a leader in the Presidents' Athletic Conference (PAC), is setting a new standard for athletic programs by implementing Volt across all sports teams. Their comprehensive and holistic approach to training ensures every athlete and coach has the tools to succeed, contributing to their sweep of both the men’s and women’s All-Sports Trophies for the 2023-24 academic year.
Meeting the Needs of an Entire Athletic Department
Grove City College faced a significant challenge: managing diverse training needs across 20 sports teams while maintaining their competitive dominance. When both of their strength coaches left unexpectedly before the 2023 school year, the college needed an immediate and effective solution to ensure their athletes could continue training at a high level.
Volt offered a seamless transition by equipping Grove City with tools to support individualized training programs for every athlete, regardless of their sport or position. The ease of program creation for the coaches and the flexibility and adaptability of the training for the athletes because of Volt proved invaluable.
Solving the Challenges of Multi-Sport Athletes
Grove City College’s athletic department includes a significant number of multi-sport athletes who juggle overlapping seasons and the unique demands of each sport. Managing these complexities is no small feat. Volt has provided the college with a solution that ensures training is streamlined, sustainable, and effective for athletes who play multiple sports.
Volt also allows coaches from different teams to align on programming, avoiding overtraining and ensuring athletes are supported holistically. This coordination has been crucial in maintaining athlete health and optimizing performance across all sports year-round.
“Volt has made us more organized and kept our athletes on track. Our strength coaches love the product and the ability to quickly adjust workouts. Our athletes love that they can sub exercises easily if need be, and feel trusted and independent even while being coached”
