Little Champions 2 Near Tamarac (Ages 8–9)

Next-level Little Champs — more challenging techniques, deeper drilling, age-matched live training.

Little Champions 2 serves Tamarac eight-and-nine-year-olds with a technically richer version of the kids curriculum. Guard passing, submission defense, and offensive chains are added to the positional framework established in earlier years. Partner drilling at this level involves more live pressure — children are guided to resist at an appropriate level while still developing technique. Millennium Middle School students who started training in this program as younger children often choose to continue through the Juniors program, which tells the coaching staff something important: the program is holding interest through the transition into adolescence, which is the developmental stage where most activity programs lose participants.
