Why Coach Chico Created the Academy
Focused Practice. More Repetition. Better Habits.
Coach Chico created the Elev8 Online Academy to help players move from guessing to training with purpose.
Many players want to improve but do not know what to practice, how to structure their time, or how to connect drills to real match play. The Academy gives players a clear system for learning skills, practicing consistently, and building confidence over time.
The goal is simple: help players understand the game, build better habits, and keep improving wherever they train.
Build Consistency
Practice the same stroke or pattern repeatedly so your body can learn the movement.
Improve Footwork
Use placement drills to work on moving, recovering, and preparing for the next ball.
Train With Purpose
Follow a clear practice plan instead of guessing what to work on.
Support Every Level
Beginners can start with simple drills, while developing players can work on spin, placement, transitions, and match-like patterns.
