About Skyhawks Sports & Supertots Sports Academy

Over the past 40 years, Skyhawks Sports Academy and SuperTots Sports Academy programs have welcomed over 1.75 million children. Serving ages 1.5-14 years in 25 U.S. states and China, Skyhawks and SuperTots programs teach life lessons through sports and instill a life-long passion for athletics and a healthy lifestyle. Skyhawks offers 11 different sports–and countless ways for your child to grow.

In 1979, Jeff Heimbigner recognized that children of varying athletic levels did not have the same opportunity to learn sport-specific skills as serious players or elite young athletes. Many of these children aspired to be better players but unfortunately did not have the best setting in which to learn sport-specific skills, have fun, be safe, and take those lessons home and apply them to their everyday lives. Jeff had a vision that every child should experience the joy and benefits of sports. Jeff created a purpose for the company: “Teaching life skills through sports.”

With his vision and purpose stated, Skyhawks Sports Academy was born.

Skyhawks Sports Academy started as a regional soccer program focused in the Pacific Northwest. The popularity of the camps grew as the years went by, and some amazing athletes and wonderful individuals emerged. These soccer-focused Skyhawks camps emphasized critical lessons in life, such as sportsmanship, teamwork, and winning and losing with grace.

As the years passed, Skyhawks added more sports and more safe, fun, and skill-focused camps for sports like basketball, flag football, volleyball, and baseball while remaining true to its purpose and vision. Today, Skyhawks offers camps, clinics, and leagues in more than 10 different sports, multi-sport programs, and even Mini-Hawk® programs tailored for athletes as young as 4-years-old!

Over the last 40 years, vibrant memories have been created in the lives of boys and girls across North America, coaches, and long-term associates of Skyhawks. Full of interaction and excitement, Skyhawks’ camps provide great fun for everyone, and our best camps are known to have a festival-like atmosphere. The most incredible part of a Skyhawks Sports Academy camp is that the children forget that they are learning valuable sport and life skills because those lessons are so well integrated with friendly and fascinating play. Most important to us, and the purpose of Skyhawks Sports Academy, is to teach life skills through sports.

The development of Skyhawks Sports Academy has been a wonderful ride for everyone involved, and we expect to continue to make a difference–one child at a time. Today we offer 10+ different sports (Soccer, Basketball, Flag Football, Baseball, Multi-Sport, Tennis, Mini-Hawk, Lacrosse, Golf, Volleyball, Cheerleading, and Track & Field) camps and programs, providing countless ways for your child to grow.
