Leading their charge is Fernando Torres, who serves as Performance Manager and Sports Scientist. With a Master's in Exercise Science and multiple certifications in strength, conditioning and mobility, he brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to every training session. More importantly, his passion about helping young athletes grow in confidence and skill has seen him work with athletes of all levels from the youth to professional ranks.
