FAQ’S

When I try out for Ignite, am I trying out for a Navy, City or Train to Compete team?

When your athlete tries out, you’ll receive a placement recommendation for where we see them as best fit, whether that be on a Navy, City or Train to Compete team.

Who will be my athlete’s coach?

We have a small team of outstanding coaches. At larger programs that staff 50+ teams a season, you are right to question the depth of that programs personal & training relationship with their coach and how that may impact your athlete’s experience. Our personable staff is highly trained, loves coaching & cares about developing character.
