Most athletes train hard without knowing what is holding them back
A kid gets told to "get faster." So they run more. Or they get told to "get stronger," so they keep adding weight to the bar.
At Trident, we look at the bigger picture. Speed, strength, power, movement quality, and durability are all connected — but they are not the same thing. If an athlete isn't getting faster, we want to know why.
We don't just train harder. We train with purpose, measure progress, and build the qualities that actually transfer to sport and life.
When you know where an athlete is starting, you can build a plan to get them where they want to go — instead of guessing your way through.

What to expect on combine day
Check in
Check in between 3:30pm and no later than 4:15pm. Grab your scorecard, meet your coach, and get your division. Parents are welcome to stay and watch.
Coached warm-up
Group movement prep and test demonstrations before anything is scored. Every athlete gets practice reps.
Testing
Everyone moves through the eight events together, but scoring is by division: 6th–7th grade, 8th grade, high school freshmen and sophomores, high school juniors and seniors, and college.
Results review
Every athlete leaves with a card of their event numbers. Athletes are ranked in each event (1st = 1 point, 2nd = 2 points, and so on) and the lowest total wins — so you leave knowing exactly where to take your training next.
This is for you if
- You play a sport in middle school, high school, or college.
- You want honest numbers instead of a coach's guess.
- You are heading into a fall or winter season and want a plan.
- You have never trained in a weight room and want a safe first step.
- You are coming back from an injury and want a durability read.
This is not for you if
- You want a recruiting showcase with college coaches in the room.
- You are looking for a one-day fix instead of a training direction.
- You are currently injured and not cleared for sport activity.
- You are under 11 or not yet playing organized sport.
Why Trident
Coach-led, in a room built for athletes
- Coaches, not a clipboard. Our staff runs every station, teaches every test, and corrects mechanics before scoring. Athletic development at Trident has always extended beyond game day.
- Collegiate equipment. The same racks, turf, and testing setup our year-round athletes use — from middle school through professional.
- Sport-specific interpretation. A lacrosse midfielder and a lineman read the same scorecard differently. We tell you which numbers matter for your sport and position.
- Local, and here after Oct 24. We are on Zinfandel Lane in Lewes. If you want to keep training, the coach who tested you is the coach who programs for you.

Questions parents and athletes ask
Who is the combine for?
Middle school, high school, and college athletes in any sport. You do not need to be experienced in a weight room. Every test is taught, warmed up, and coached before it is scored.
What if my athlete has never been tested before?
That is most of the room. We run a group warm-up, demo each test, and give practice reps before anything counts. Nobody gets thrown into a max-effort sprint cold.
What happens after we register?
You get a confirmation email within a few minutes and a text from a coach within one business day with arrival time, what to wear, and a check-in link. We only need 10 minutes of your attention before combine day.
How long does it take?
On Saturday, October 24 from 3:30pm – 7:30pm. Check in between 3:30pm and no later than 4:15pm, then plan on the full evening including warm-up, testing, and the results review.
What do the results actually tell us?
You leave with a scorecard covering speed, power, and strength across all eight events, plus your ranking within your grade or age division. It tells you which quality is the limiter this season.
How is the combine scored?
Every athlete carries a card with their numbers from each event. Athletes are ranked within their division on each event (1st place = 1 point, 2nd = 2 points, and so on) and the lowest total score at the end wins.
Is this a recruiting showcase?
No. This is honest testing you can use — for your own training, to send verified numbers to a coach, or to build a plan. We do not sell exposure or promise recruitment.
What should we bring?
Training shoes (no cleats on the turf), athletic clothes, and a water bottle. Any braces or supports the athlete normally trains in.
How do we pay?
Payment is handled through Mindbody. Athletes must register and pay in advance to secure a spot — no payments are taken at the door. Fill out the form here and a coach will send you the Mindbody registration link.
What if we sign up and cannot make it?
Call or text 302-291-4247 and we will move the athlete to the next combine date at no cost.
Where exactly are you?
Champions Stadium at Cape Henlopen High School, 1250 Kings Highway, Lewes, DE 19958. Free parking at the school.
