Jeff Millet works out students at North Core

NorthCore Performance Training will be hosting a meet and greet with professional baseball players for local high school athletes on January 8, 2014 from 3:30-4:30pm at their center in Shoreline. Students will receive insight and advice on becoming a better player as well as a  community leader.

Travis Snider (Pittsburgh Pirates), Brent Lillibridge (Texas Rangers), Steven Souza (Washington Nationals), James Robbins (Detroit Tigers), Geoff Brown (LA Dodgers), and Pierce Rancin (Toronto Blue Jays) will be present at the meet and greet. Each player has trained at NorthCore Performance and wants to help students understand how to achieve their goals. 

The players will discuss practice type and volume, hitting and pitching, healthy diet, recruiting processes for college and the MLB draft, and the importance of school, as well as how to be a good role model for the team and community. There will also be an open Q / A session and a time for autographs.

Edmonds resident Jeff Millet, owner of NorthCore Performance, has been training professional athletes, student athletes, and others for six years in the Pacific Northwest.

“I specialize in helping athletes achieve their full potential at my gym,” Jeff said. “I particularly love equipping young students with the tools to be not only a great athlete but also a well rounded person. That’s one of the reasons I’m doing this event. I wanted to give students a chance to meet local professional athletes and see what it takes to get to the next level.”  

Parent Leslie Longaker says, “Jeff really knows how to connect with these kids. He has been a great mentor for our son.”

The pro athlete meet and greet for youth and student athletes is free and open to the public. NorthCore Performance Training is located at 1501 N 200th St in Shoreline across from Aurora Village. On-site parking is limited, but street parking is available. Car pooling is encouraged.
