What a cool afternoon! Thanks to our #LAPD Community Safety Partnership program, children from housing developments got exposed to the sport of indoor cycling at the @StubHubCenter @VELOSportsCtr. You might be looking at the next Olympian! pic.twitter.com/3gXD4knJ5z

We are excited that the US was awarded the Summer Olympic Games. Elite athletes from all over the world will gather in Los Angeles in 2028.
Training for Life is an initiative to target at-risk youth in Los Angeles with opportunities for sports performance, after-school enrichment, and life counseling.
There are few things more rewarding for an athlete than competing for their country. Young, aspiring athletes throughout the US are now setting goals to make the Olympic team in their sport.
Many promising athletes fail to realize their dream due to a lack of needed resources to realize their potential. Many never get on the radar of their sport’s US National Governing Body.
Many more promising athletes without proper, experienced guidance suffer “burn out” early in their sport development and fall short of realizing their potential in their sport.
We look forward to helping create an opportunity for an improved quality of life for at-risk youth living in Los Angeles. Perhaps, some of these youth will realize a dreams of elite sports performance at the LA28 Olympic Games.
We are committed to helping at-risk youth be successful in LA.
