Day in the Life

A day in the life at your club × SAI

* The schedule is up to you — academics or training first.

1

Train on the Field

Arrive early and train on the field or turf with your club's professional coaching staff — peak hours, fresh legs.

2

Gym & Mindset

Head to the gym and mindset-training area to sharpen the off-the-field skills that set great athletes apart.

3

Recharge

Break, clean up, and lunch — time to relax and recharge before the afternoon.

4

Academics

Afternoon sessions focused on academics. With hundreds of courses — AP, Honors, and Dual Enrollment — we've got you covered.

SAI has been a game changer for DME Academy, Sarasota. They handle all the academics, support our growth, and have helped us grow from 6 to 36 in just two years. From a unique offering perspective to an impactful revenue line, DME couldn't be happier.

The Proof

From SAI's classroom to the World Cup

The model works. SAI Academy graduate Alex Freeman went from student-athlete to the United States Men's National Team — proof of where elite academics and training together can lead.
