Middle School Knights Power
Ready to get stronger, faster, and more confident on the field or court? This after-school program is designed for 7th–8th graders who want to build athletic skills safely and effectively. Each session is fun, hands-on, and focused on proper movement, strength, speed, power, and injury prevention. Whether you’re preparing for a specific sport, getting ahead in the offseason, or maintaining your edge in-season, this program helps you move better, perform better, and reach your full potential.

My Name is Shaylar (Coach Shay) Burnell and I’m the 10th grade football defensive coordinator for STMA HS and STMA Middle School West Weightlifting coach. I attended SMSU for sports management/ youth administration, played collegiate football for the Mustangs, and also served as team captain for two years.
