Keli 'the tennaaychious' Wildermuth
When she sprints across the court you’ll understand. Keli can outrun everybody and never tire doing so. She was an All American college athlete and is very familiar with what it takes to create the passion that high performance athletes need to succeed. She brings that expertise to MYFS students.
Keli works with our higher level students and she ensures they are challenged everyday.
Gavin Addison
Gavin is a legend! He is a fantastic athlete and he is a leading baseball player on the MacAllister University team. Gavin has worked with our program for 5 years. He is a natural leader and takes charge during the camp.
The young players in our camp immediately recognize his leadership and love to be around him. We are very happy to have Gavin helping to run our camp again this year.
Brooke ‘Boom Boom’ Bornstein
Hello, I am Brooke Bornstein.
I am a Lane Tech Champion Tennis Player and I love to crush my opponents. My forehand is my strongest shot and any player brave enough to face me learns to fear it. I am most famous for my doubles prowess and I am rarely beaten.
I love to teach young players to play with the same intensity I have. Despite my on-court ferocity, I am caring and generous to the people around me and I like to teach young children. Watch out! I’m sending a new batch of power hitters into the world of tennis.
Keira ‘Whole Lotta Energy’ Kenealy
Watch out, cos’ when Keira is around, you better hold on. Keira’s energy will bombard your every sense. She is a natural on the cheer team and is the reason entire football teams crumble in defeat due to her Cheer energy.
As a Lacrosse player no opponent can contain her. Keira brings that same energy to the MYFS summer camps. The camp players loved her sense of fun and we welcome her back this summer.
‘Leah ‘Crushya’ Stegh
Leah thrives on showing you how to do it right. If she is your opponent in Lacrosse, you’re gonna learn the hard way. If she is taking the time to teach competitive Cheer, you’re learning from the best.
Leah is always looking to help those who want to improve and that makes her a perfect fit for the MYFS Summer camps. Leah is a Lane Tech Champion who loves to play Tennis and Volleyball.
Katherine ‘Quiet Riot’ Frey
Katherine is the queen of poise. She has been a student in our camps for many years and we welcome her this Summer as a counselor.
Katherine has beautiful tennis strokes and a golf swing that would make Tiger Woods jealous. Katherine has a gentle nature that belies the ferocity that she brings to the sports she plays.
As a student in the camps she would look to help the younger players whenever they needed it. Katherine is going to be a fantastic addition to our team.
Riley ‘Smiley’ Wildermuth
Riley brings the joy to everyone and everywhere she goes. In this she is indispensable at our sports camp. On the tennis court, Riley is an unbeatable force of nature. She will simply refuse to lose!
Riley has been part of the MYFS family as a frequent student and now she will pass along her expertise to the athletes at the summer camp. Off court Riley is so good natured that people love to be around her, and she maintains her own athletic prowess with a strict fitness regimen.
