Stars Football Family,

March Madness is on the doorstep, and I don't mean the NCAA tournament. Spring sports begin on Monday, and I wish all athletes the best of luck as they start their tryouts. Anytime you put your abilities on display for others to judge can be a challenging endeavor. It is a moment of vulnerability, where our control is limited, and someone else can determine our future. As an athlete, I have been in this position numerous times. Moments such as these allow us to lean on the preparation and investment we put in the off-season. In our program, we discuss pressure and how pressure is a privilege. Only those willing to risk success or failure can experience this pressure. Pressure is earned. We believe that the stress we feel is good and means we are doing something important to us. Unfortunately, some of us will make teams, and others will not. Those who make their teams take a moment to enjoy it. It is an incredible moment of validation for your journey. Please do not hang your head for those who do not make their teams of choice. While one door closes, another will open. We must be open to new endeavors. Is it okay to feel bad? Yes! Any true competitor will be disappointed when they do not achieve a goal they have set out for. Please understand that success is not linear; it is a series of highs and lows, and we must keep moving forward.

I wish you all the best, and I am always here if you need anything.

Coach Pomazak

This past Friday, the winter sports performance season came to an end. It was a great 10 weeks of training over 40 days of sessions. Our kids did a fantastic job of letting the Northstar Mentality guide them. Results are in, and the gains made are impressive. You can check out individual gains on the above link; some group results are below.

• 3-inch average gain in the broad jump
• 1.5-inch average gain in vertical jump
• .03 reduction in fly ten score
• 11% gain in bench
• 14% gain in squat
• 19 % gain in deadlift

We try to stay connected all year in the St. Charles North Football program. When our winter sports athletes compete for the Stars, those not in season work in the weight room and gyms. It is an excellent opportunity to build relationships away from the football field. Each week culminates with an Elite Leader being named. The best part of the award is that the player from the week prior is the one who names the recipient. It is an extraordinary moment when our players highlight each other. I am excited to see who gets the opportunity to be called an "Elite Leader" this off-season.

Who: Ben Soloman & Kevin Sabo will be training Stars interested in developing their positional skill at the defensive line.

What: Defensive line training & Offensive Line Training

Where: Dawg Den in St. Charles (Dean Street by Stc Gymnastics

When: 9am-10am & 10am- 11am

Players interested can walk in. No registration is needed.

All middle school students can attend the Speeds Stars Strength and Speed Camp. Begin in March and runs through April. All students, regardless of high school affiliation, can attend. This comprehensive camp will cover basic strength training that includes body weight functional training and low-level strength development. Training sessions will also include linear and lateral speed development. Certified professionals will create individualized programs to ensure that all athletes, regardless of training or strength background, can benefit from these sessions.

The NCAA D1 FBS contact period has started. That means colleges can schedule times to visit with the 2024 recruits. In the coming weeks, we will have an excellent opportunity to get our players in front of some of the best and brightest colleges in the country. Our protocol for college visits is as follows.

1. Coach Pomazak emails administration scheduled visits for the coming day, including which students have been asked to attend by visiting college coach.

2. Students will receive a pass before the scheduled visit.

3. Students will only have 15 minutes to visit. This will help limit the loss of instructional time.

4. If students have any assessments during the visit, they are not permitted to come.

5. Teachers have the right to ask students not to leave class.

6. Students should refrain from missing the same class twice a row.
