 A longtime athlete and entrepreneur, Randy saw a need for a cutting-edge athletic training outlet that provides a holistic approach to wellness and fitness. “Athletics has had a significant impact upon my professional career, as well as my life as a person and a parent,” said Randy, who participated in collegiate athletics at Troy University and has 20 years of leadership experience in the healthcare, sports and wellness marketplaces. Through providing an all-inclusive athletic outlet, Randy said he hopes BlackWatch Sports becomes a positive place to build better people. 

Lloyd decided to try gymnastic in Jr. high school just for fun and fell in love with it. He ended up doing competitive gymnastics through Jr. high and high school. His first opportunity to teach gymnastics was after moving from Philadelphia to Pensacola, FL where he found a facility to polish his skills and the owner of that gym saw more in Lloyd's future. The sport in general taught Lloyd commitment, work ethic, & dedication. His advice to young athletes is that if you put others first then your blessings will come later!

 Morgan's parents put her in almost every sport at a very young age. They realized very quick that she was going to be a competitive athlete. Morgan grew up with an older brother, so she learned how to be tough and compete with him and his friends! While trying out for college cheer, she experienced a severe injury that ended her cheerleading days. Morgan began to coach in college to stay in cheer and fell in love with it. She  enjoys working with her girls and giving them every opportunity to succeed on the floor and in life.  She wants others to experience  the power of persistence, commitment, goal setting, patience, respect and focus that made such an impact to her.  Morgan takes a natural coaching approach with a motto of "believe in yourself, like I believe in you"! She excels in getting athletes over their mental blocks pushing them beyond their fears to trust themselves and their capabilities. 

 Sports has always been a way for Darius to expend energy and feed the drive to be the best. It all started with karate because of the physical aspect but from that he learned discipline and that really played a part in how I carry myself today.   Prior coaches led him to coach. The way they positively touched his life, he too wants to impact others the same by helping them reach their full potential.  Sports overall has taught Darius to set goals and try to obtain then surpass them.   The best lesson he has learned through athletics is you get out what you put in. The best advice he received is “nothing beats a failure but try.”

As a former athlete at the University of Southern Mississippi, Taylor believes athletics allows people to be able to grow into their own character and support others that enjoy doing the same things. She also knows that athletes are able to transfer that mentality into everyday society and can be leaders by properly displaying what it means to be hardworking and dedicated. Trusting the process is a key to being successful and that is something BlackWatch believes in firmly. Every athlete that walks through that door should strive to be the best in all categories of their lives. 

Chandlar believes that athletics are so important to our youth. It promotes self discipline, responsibility, self esteem, hard work and keeps one active all while teaching how to be a team player. These are all values one will carry with them in life! She is confident that BlackWatch coaches and staff have the experience and skill sets to help athletes take it to the next level. Chandlar wants to help in anyway possible, to encourage each and every athlete to believe in their values and dream big!

Sports taught Ken Hollis a lot about how to be disciplined and how to over come adversity. As a child he use to watch the Dallas Cowboys with his dad and said, "I wanted to play on TV".  He lived out his dream by playing football for LSU and when his career ended he still had a passion for the game and helping others. Ken wants other young athletes to learn what he has by becoming better leaders, commitment, toughness, discipline and great character.
