Juggling Master

The Juggling Master program is a small motivational tool in which players are encouraged to juggle on their own and track their progress on the bag tag, sponsored by the Dana Rice Group of Compass. Once a player has completed all levels of the bag tag, please have your coach email the Technical Director and Director(s) of Coaching.
