About UPF

The Underdog Pathway Foundation was created by a family who is living the youth athletic journey from the inside out. From early-morning practices to late-night homework, private coaching sessions, travel tournaments, strength training, recruiting emails, and future college visits—we are doing it all to support our own student-athletes.

​

Along the way, we saw something we couldn’t ignore.

​

For every athlete who had access, support, and opportunity, there were countless others with just as much passion and talent—but without the resources, financial means, or guidance to take the next step. We watched kids with tremendous potential fall behind simply because they couldn’t afford specialized training, gear, tutoring, exposure, family support, or the recruiting help needed to stand out.

​

We knew that had nothing to do with ability—and everything to do with access.

​

The Underdog Pathway Foundation was born to change that.

​

We exist to level the playing field for under-resourced and high-potential youth athletes by providing the tools, support, and structured pathways needed to reach the next level. We focus on youth athletes of all ages looking to grow physically, mentally, and academically. Our programs bridge the gap between talent and opportunity, giving every underdog a real shot at success—on the field, in the classroom, and in life.

​

When one athlete rises, a community rises with them.

We’re here to make sure no athlete gets left behind simply because of circumstance.
