"This past fall, Jelani Jenkins worked with my field hockey team, and the impact he had on both the players and the team as a whole was nothing short of remarkable.
The team absolutely loved working with him, and many players have expressed their desire for him to return. Jelani not only helped set them up for success on the field by helping them believe in themselves but also emphasized the importance of mind, body, and spiritual training. His approach instilled confidence, discipline, and a deeper sense of self-awareness in each of the players.
What stands out the most is how Jelani’s guidance extended beyond just the sport. He empowered the athletes to grow holistically, giving them tools for success that will benefit them in all aspects of their lives. I’m looking forward to continuing to have him work with my team in the future, as I know his presence will continue to inspire and elevate their performance both on and off the field."
