RockIt Parent Lecture Series: Mental Edge Athletic Training
RockIt was proud to welcome Brian Turnage, Owner of Mental Edge Athletic Training, for our Parent Lecture Series.
During two sessions held on September 22 and 23, Brian spoke with RockIt parents and families about the mental side of youth sports and the important role parents can play in an athlete's development.
The discussion focused on helping young athletes build confidence, focus, emotional control, resilience, and the ability to respond to adversity. Parents also received practical tools and strategies they could begin using immediately to better support their athletes both on and off the court.
This event was part of RockIt's ongoing commitment to providing our families with resources that go beyond basketball and help develop stronger athletes, teammates, and young people.
Thank you to Brian and Mental Edge Athletic Training, and to all of the RockIt families who joined us!
RockIt Grind Sessions- RGS
Please be advised: This is a high level camp with intense training. There are morning and evening sessions.
The Standard- RGS is not a typical summer camp. These sessions are designed exclusively for the committed 4th grade through High School athlete. We have strictly limited capacity to ensure high level reps. If you are looking for a casual run, this isn't it. RGS is for the player who wants to outwork the competition when no one is watching. This will be more sprinting, running, workout style.
The Blueprint
Elite Skill Acquisition: Advanced drills with a heavy emphasis on footwork. We develop players who can read defenses and execute at full speed.
Controlled Physicality: Mastering the art of finishing through contact and maintaining aggressive, disciplined defensive positioning.
Fatigue Management: Decision making drills conducted under extreme physical fatigue to cultivate "clutch" performance and mental clarity when the game is on the line.
Mandatory Gear- Basketball and running shoes, and a water bottle
Summer RGS Evening Series- 7-8:30PM
Session 1: August 4 & 6
Session 2: August 11 & 13

RockIt Skills Academy- RSA
All sessions have conclude for summer of 2026
Please be advised: This is a high level summer camp with intense training. It is invite only
RockIt Skills Academy is a summer training experience designed to elevate each athlete’s overall performance on the basketball court. This program is built for dedicated players who are serious about improving, competing, and separating themselves from the rest.
Athletes will engage in a series of targeted, high-level drills emphasizing:
Ball handling and advanced dribbling techniques
Shooting mechanics and consistency
Footwork, agility, and movement efficiency
Defensive positioning, awareness, and intensity
In addition, we will incorporate game-like situations and competitive play, allowing athletes to apply and practice what they’ve learned in real-time. These live reps are essential for building confidence, improving decision-making, and translating skills into actual game performance.
Strength, conditioning, and mental toughness will also be emphasized to ensure athletes are prepared to compete at the next level.
Why It Matters
Summer is where separation happens.
A high-intensity training environment pushes athletes beyond their comfort zone and challenges them to perform at their best. It reveals both strengths and areas for growth, helping players better understand what they need to reach their full potential.
The off-season is the most important time for development. Without the pressure of games, athletes have the opportunity to focus, improve, and build the habits that lead to success. The best way to grow is to be pushed—and that’s exactly what this environment provides.
If you want to stand out, you have to be willing to be challenged.
RockIt Skills Academy is designed to push you, develop you, and help you separate yourself from the rest.
