We all remember what it was like to be a kid playing sports - the message was always that you were either good at sports or you were bad at sports - no in between and no room to grow.
At Junction Place Sports, we understand the immense benefit that comes from the joy of movement and play.
Kids develop healthy bodies (and habits), learn strong leadership skills, and most importantly, build confidence that will last a lifetime.
We focus on the fundamentals and core guiding principles of movement that prepares kids for over 95% of sports and athletics. With these principles under their belt, kids can approach any number of interests with confidence and find the sports or movement that resonates with them the most.
Our space and operating systems are based on three basic pillars:
1. Customer Service: "Give Your Best Effort. Buy All In." isn't something we preach, its what we practice. You call, we answer. You've got an idea, we've got an ear. We exist because of you and never forget it!
2. Ease of Your Experience: The greatest coach in the world isn't much help to you if you can't get in touch with them! Our great coaches are busy serving our community, they can sometimes be tough to get a hold of. No worries, we have automated everything! You have the power to navigate your experience. We put in the work to make sure if you are in need of a camp offering, private lesson, sport specific class, birthday party or field rental you are always a few clicks away!
3. Climate Control: We live in Southeast Louisiana. It's hot. It rains. Or in most months, the good days are just sticky and sweaty. We wouldn't feel right calling it an indoor sportsplex without a break from the elements. Will we always be 72 degrees? Probably not, but we understand the fundamental difference between being inside and being inside someplace comfortable!

Our approach to early childhood and elementary age sports education is simple: provide a foundation based on the basic elements of the subject matter and don't put a cap on the results! Leading young people doesn't require personal accolades or success of the instructor in the given subject matter. Young people have a zest for knowledge and experience, what "you did" probably occurred before they were born so it's really insignificant to their perspective. What does matter in the mind of a young person is can you relate? Can you inspire? Can you communicate on a level that THEY can understand? At Junction Place Sports, our staff is provided a curriculum, better yet a language, that ensures just that! While communication with parents/guardians is of the utmost importance to our organizational principals, our aim is to have YOUR child be able to explain to you what they learned and love about Basketball Basics and Simply Soccer! We provide clear and pointed adult based information- the "who/what/where/when's". What we don't do is force a narrative of what your child did or how they felt about it in a "copy and paste" email/text format that has become common place today. That's not the job of an instructor of young people. We aim to have your child fill in the blanks to whatever questions you may have! Our instruction is repetitive, like, really repetitive, as in, we say the same phrases over and over and over and over again- something we are sure you can understand. We don't back away from that approach. It works. Here is what you can expect when you provide your child the experience of Junction Place Sports' Basketball Basic or Simply Soccer Programs: Knowledge: Our coaches must receive 200 hours of practical training with JPS Founder/CEO "Coach" Josh Tolbert before being able to leading Junction Place Sports programs. Passion: Our coaches all come with a passion for sports (check out "Our Team" story) and for cultivating a similar love of sport with the children we serve. Patience An intricate part of leading children through any discipline is patience. They will make mistakes. Directions will need to be repeated. Basic concepts will need to be reinforced. These ideals are a point of emphasis in our "Coaches Playbook" that guides all Junction Place Sports coaches. Knowing everything there is to know about a particular discipline is great! Forgetting or not recognizing the wonderful patience and persistence required to master any skill and failing to implement that while leading others is simply unacceptable.
