Red Team

Build toward the first big standard.

Red Team is for athletes newer to the sport who are developing the technique, consistency, and confidence to pursue a varsity place or state-meet qualification.

The level

A first step with room to grow.

Red athletes receive the same coaching commitment and seven-part development system as every Franklin team. Placement is based on current readiness—not age or perceived potential—and is reviewed as the athlete progresses. Age group, training schedule, season dates, and placement standards are still to confirm.
