Your Support Creates Champions

Behind every great athlete is someone who believed in them.

Fund Training, Not Overhead

When you give to Beyond The Season, 80% of your donation funds athlete development, with the remainder covering essential operations.

We don't write checks to families and hope the money gets used right. We pay coaches and facilities directly. You're not funding a program—you're funding a person's path to excellence.

What your donation does:

Pays for gym memberships and training facility access
Covers coaching fees and private instruction
Funds tournament and competition entry fees
Provides sport-specific equipment
Supports ongoing mentorship and check-ins

Why This Matters

Youth sports has become pay-to-play. The average family spends over $1,000/year on their child's primary sport—and for elite development, that number balloons to $5,000, $10,000, or more.

Half of all sports families say they've struggled to afford participation. For lower-income families, "elite training" isn't a budget challenge—it's simply not an option.

That means driven kids get left behind. Not because they don't work hard enough. Because the playing field was never level.

Beyond The Season levels it.

Every Grant Is Personal

We don't do one-size-fits-all funding. Every athlete's grant is customized to their specific sport, development stage, and training needs.

Grants range from a few hundred dollars for gym access to tens of thousands for comprehensive elite training programs. We work with each athlete to build a plan, then fund it directly with coaches and facilities.

What we fund:

Offseason training programs
Sport-specific coaching and instruction
Training facility memberships
Equipment and gear
Competition and showcase fees

Who We Are

Beyond The Season was founded by Adam and JT Bernstein—two brothers who grew up with every training advantage and spent years watching driven athletes fall behind because their families couldn't afford what theirs could.

They started BTS with their own money. They built a Selection Committee of athletes, coaches, and entrepreneurs who review every application. And they made a commitment: every dollar raised goes directly to athlete development.

80% goes directly to athletes. No middlemen. Just training.
