How does one positively impact the lives of hundreds of thousands of kids - of all ages? How does one acquire a top reputation for bringing a unique concept to life - that is, combining state-of-the-art sports training programs with innovative college placement initiatives to help kids get a leg up in education opportunities and in life? James F. Pomeroy II offers up some tips and advice:

1.     Empower kids one player at a time, by earning and keeping their trust
2.     Teaching kids a new way to do things is not easy and has no quick fix. Get ready to devote time, expend resources, and focus on the end goal….helping kids!
3.     Review past performances - but focus your energy on the present.
4.     Believe in what you’re doing - and your kids will believe along with you.
5.     Get the best and the brightest to work for you - Velocity employs top-notch professional sports teachers and only the latest computer systems.
6.     Include the decision makers (i.e, the parents) in every strategy, plan, and action involving their kids - their input is invaluable.
7.     The program does not end when the kids graduate - stay in touch and continue boosting their co
Confidence and beliefs.
8.     A word about funding and fundraising - persuade  business leaders that investing in kids and in their future can produce dividends, then make that happen!
9.     Spread the word - find out what other emerging programs share your goals. Share your skills, provide advice, perhaps even invest in them and persuade them to adopt what is useful in your programs.  Then give without expectation.  People will get it, and the end game happens.
