Why We Started Cheetah Crew

Coach Corey
Upper Elementary Coach • CPR & First Aid Certified
Coach Corey is a lifelong sports enthusiast, father of three, and passionate mentor who loves helping kids discover what they’re capable of. He believes kids grow strongest when they are encouraged to try, practice, persevere, and celebrate their progress—not simply compete.
After completing multiple Spartan Races, a half marathon, and a triathlon, Corey understands firsthand the value of setting a goal and working toward it. His coaching style combines movement and skill development with encouragement, teamwork, leadership, resilience, and good sportsmanship.
Outside of coaching, Corey enjoys playing flag football, staying active, playing strategy games, and spending time with friends and family. He especially enjoys a good family game night.
What Corey loves most about coaching is seeing kids gain confidence as they work through challenges, discover new strengths, and realize they are capable of more than they thought. He wants every athlete to learn that progress comes from showing up, giving their best, and not giving up when something is difficult.
His goal is simple: Every child should leave class thinking, “I can do hard things.”
Coach Mandy
Lower Elementary Coach • CPR & First Aid Certified
Coach Mandy is a Texas-certified elementary educator with a degree in Applied Learning and Development from The University of Texas and training in elementary kinesiology.
With more than 10 years of classroom teaching experience and years of homeschooling her own children, she knows how to make learning active, engaging, and fun.
Mandy believes every child deserves to feel successful, encouraged, and excited to move. She brings her experience as an educator into every class, helping young athletes develop coordination, confidence, physical skills, and a positive relationship with movement.
An active runner and strength-training enthusiast, Mandy has completed two half marathons along with numerous 5Ks and 10Ks. She especially enjoys running trails with friends and family, setting personal fitness goals, and—when she’s not training—enjoys planning family adventures and anything creative.
Her favorite part of coaching is watching a child discover something they couldn’t do before—and realizing, “I can do this!”
Our Core Values
Teamwork
We learn to encourage one another, work together, and celebrate each person’s contributions. Success is sweeter when we achieve it as a team.
Sportsmanship
Winning isn’t our goal—growing is. We celebrate effort, honesty, encouragement, and learning to handle both victories and setbacks with a positive attitude.
Perseverance
Growth comes through practice. We encourage children to keep trying, overcome challenges, and discover that they are capable of more than they imagined.
Leadership
We help children lead by example through responsibility, integrity, and encouraging others. Leadership isn’t about being the loudest—it’s about serving others well.
Respect
We treat teammates, coaches, equipment, and ourselves with kindness and respect. Every child deserves to feel valued, included, and encouraged.
Joy
Movement should be fun! We want every child to leave class smiling, feeling stronger, and excited to come back next week.
