Welcome to Islander Power!

Welcome to Islander Power - the home of Athletic Performance training for all Grand Island Senior High Islander Athletes. The purpose of Islander Power is to not only improve our athlete's level of strength and conditioning, but to improve overall athletic performance. On an average day, we train 700+ Islander Athletes in some sort of capacity that relates to improving their overall athletic capabilities. This includes strength, speed, power production, mobility/flexibility, and the overall robustness it takes to be a successful athlete at the Class A level.

This requires a lot of equipment, maintenance, and various odds & ends in order to make it work. Not only do we buy the big necessities such as bars, plates, and dumbbells, but many little things that are weekly, monthly and annual purchases that are required to make the program operate! 

On top of this, we also have our Islander Powerlifting team, made up of 90-100 kids on average each year, that is fully funded by us and the fundraising that we do annually. Powerlifting meets require entry fees, food, hotel, travel expenses, equipment, and uniforms; All of which are funded by us entirely. This is where we need the most help, because we will spend upwards of $25,000 annually to make this program run. If we cannot fund it, student athletes have to pay for everything out of their own pocket and we would love for each athlete to not have to use their own money to compete. 

This year we are also lucky enough to have 19 student athletes who have qualified for USA Powerlifting High School Nationals in Killeen, Texas. This trip will allow the kids to compete at the national level against the strongest of the strong in the USA. We need your help to get them there! We are very appreciative of anything you can do to help and just know that this is the opportunity of a lifetime for these kids!

Thank you in advance for your consideration and support of the Islander Power Strength & Conditioning Program!
