Additions

The National Academy of Athletics is the best youth sports franchise because our Founder and CEO, Aaron Locks, has over four decades of working in the Youth Sports business. He was mentored by some of the most famous coaches on record and developed the NAofA programs and philosophy based on the knowledge he received along his journey.

Aaron comprised a team of like-minded business professionals with a lifetime of experience and passion in sports. They all believe some of the most important life lessons are learned at a young age, playing sports! So together, they combined their expertise to develop the National Academy of Athletics on a mission to bring back recreational youth sports programs to children nationwide. In just ten years, the NAofA successfully operates its programs in 5 states and 200 locations.
