About this app

Athlete’s Edge is a groundbreaking digital platform built to support youth athletes by focusing on one of the most overlooked aspects of sports: the mental game. While traditional coaching emphasizes fundamentals and advanced programs develop physical strength and conditioning, Athlete’s Edge fills the critical gap—empowering athletes with the mindset, confidence, and emotional resilience needed to thrive both on and off the field.

Designed in collaboration with former professional athletes, mental health experts, coaches, and educators, the app delivers curriculum-based courses tailored to the challenges young athletes face throughout their journey. From managing performance anxiety and dealing with pressure, to fostering leadership and building emotional intelligence, Athlete’s Edge turns real-life obstacles into teachable moments. Courses are designed for youth athletes, their families, and their coaches, offering bite-sized, practical tools to help navigate the mental challenges that come with competition, failure, teamwork, and growth.

Users have the ability to earn badges for completed courses, and have their number of hours learned tracked by the user’s sports organization and coaches.

Beyond the courses, the app includes exclusive interviews and insights from professional athletes and coaches who openly share their struggles and successes as it relates to mental health and overcoming adversities. Further, users gain access to an expanding database of local and national mental health resources, community clubs, and youth organizations.

Empower your athlete from the inside out. Give them the understanding, tools, and mental strength to gain the Edge—the Athlete’s Edge.
