Sports Performance

Sports Performance is under the guidance of Jason Jerome. 

Originally from Aurora, IL, Jason earned his Master’s Degree in Sports Medicine from the University of Miami in 2006.  Early in Jason’s career, he was employed by the University of Miami and responsible for rehabilitating olympic, professional, and collegiate athletes from various sports including football, track and field, and volleyball.  A major highlight of Jason’s time at the “U” was serving as a core training specialist for the track and field program as well as working with numerous alumni from the NFL and MLB.  

A major opportunity fell upon him in 2010 as Jason began serving as the Chief Operating Officer and Director of Athletic Development for IMPACT SPORTS PERFORMANCE, in Boca Raton, FL.  That opportunity provided Jason access to train 1000’s of athletes, be an Athletic Trainer for multiple professional sports organizations, and run the NHL Combine for four years. 

Arriving in Pittsburgh in 2019, Jason has served as the Director of Sports Performance for the Pittsburgh Penguins Elite program and the Excel Hockey Academy.  The time here in Western PA has been highlighted by contributing to dozens of athletes moving onto the next level in their respective sports and assisting in the creation of an  international presence for the Excel Hockey Academy. Jason is a proud supporting member of the National Athletic Training Association (NATA).
