New Athlete Performance Partnership Is Setting a New Standard for Youth Sports

The Athlete Lab, Idaho’s only youth athlete performance center built on an integrated ecosystem (Strength & Speed, Injury Prevention, Mental Performance, Nutrition & Recovery), is expanding to Sawtooth Sports, the Boise area’s leading baseball and softball training facility

This partnership delivers the most complete athlete development system in Idaho, combining skills training, performance coaching, mindset support, nutrition and recovery — all under one roof.

The partnership officially launches with the first Athlete Lab sessions at the the Sawtooth Sports facility on September 10th, 2025.

What This Means for Athletes

This collaboration offers athletes the rare advantage of an all-in-one ecosystem—where athletes aren’t just training harder, but training smarter with long-term athlete development in mind:

• Strength & Speed training to build strong and explosive athleticism – through a focus on force production, agility and injury prevention
• Mental Performance coaching to develop resiliency to compete with confidence and be well – with guided coaching, breathing techniques, meditation and visualization
• Nutrition & Recovery strategies to fuel growth and prevent burnout
• Integrated baseball/softball skill development with Sawtooth Sports’ renowned coaches and advanced technology.

“Families know and trust Sawtooth Sports,” said Tyler Hess, Owner of Sawtooth Sports. “By teaming up with The Athlete Lab, we’re taking the next step forward—expanding opportunities for young athletes to dream bigger, train smarter, and stay healthier.”

“By partnering with Sawtooth Sports, we’ve created a one-stop environment where local Boise area players can get an ecosystem of support—from hitting and pitching instruction to strength, speed, mindset, and nutrition strategies” said Andrew Wrisley, Founder of The Athlete Lab.

Every athlete has dreams. Few have the right support system to get there. The collaboration between The Athlete Lab x Sawtooth Sports brings together two innovative organizations with a shared mission: to help athletes unlock their full potential and thrive both on and off the field.
