ABOUT US
sPORTS ACADEMY
Sports Academy is headquartered in Fresno, California, and also provides services in the city of Clovis. The company was founded by three business student-athletes from Fresno Pacific University in February 2020. Fellipe Souza, a Brazilian soccer player, Lawrence Cairo, local Track & Field and Football player, and Dmitry Belolipetsky, a swimmer athlete from Russia, are national and international experienced and knowledgeable athletes with numbers of nominations and awards from their respective sports.
We provide personal and private training to kids from six to 18 years old who desire to improve their performance or simply stay healthy by playing soccer, track & field, or football. Besides the usual training at a specific location, our company also offers in-home (client’s location) training.
