As we continue to build one of the premier student-athlete development programs in Christian education, we are excited to announce the addition of Calvin Fernandez as the Associate Director of Sports Performance at King's Ridge Christian School.
Following the launch of our partnership with Players Performance Institute (PPI) and the appointment of Chad Cook as Founding Director of Sports Performance, Calvin's arrival represents another significant investment in the future of our student-athletes.
Calvin brings a diverse background of experience from Gardner-Webb University, Apex Athletic Performance, and Hebron Christian Academy, where he has developed athletes ranging from youth competitors to collegiate standouts and NFL prospects. His passion for excellence, commitment to athlete development, and talent for building meaningful relationships make him an outstanding addition to our community.
As Associate Director of Sports Performance, Calvin will lead daily operations in our weight room, implement cutting-edge performance programming, use data-driven training methods, and foster a culture of discipline, accountability, and excellence. Working alongside Chad Cook, he will help develop stronger, faster, healthier, and more resilient student-athletes across every sport.
Most importantly, Calvin's impact extends far beyond physical performance. He is deeply committed to mentoring young people, developing leaders of character, and helping students grow in their faith as they pursue their best in competition and in life.
Together, Chad and Calvin will lead a transformational approach to athletic performance at King's Ridge. One that develops the whole athlete: mind, body, and spirit.
Please join us in welcoming Calvin and his wife, Selah, to Tiger Nation.
