Performance, Wellness & Mindset
To succeed in any sport, there are fundamental skills & techniques that require attention off-field.
All Academy Camps athletes participate in our Performance, Wellness & Mindset programming which focuses on the foundational skills integral to all sports.
Core Skills
Strength & Conditioning Coach
Lucas Kuhn
Coach Lucas brings a dynamic and science-backed approach to Team AC as our Strength and Conditioning Coach. Originally from Cape Town, South Africa, Lucas began his journey as a competitive athlete in both rugby and cricket. These experiences sparked his passion for developing others through movement and physical performance.
He has worked with athletes across multiple levels, from youth to professionals, including time with South African Premier Soccer League clubs Stellenbosch FC and Cape Town City. His training experience spans personal fitness, sports conditioning, and hands-on university clinicals. All of this shapes his holistic and intentional coaching style.
Lucas believes strength and conditioning should not only prepare athletes to compete at their best but also promote longevity, confidence, and a healthy relationship with physical activity. At Academy Camps, his sessions are designed to challenge, inspire, and support each athlete’s full development on and off the field.
