History
Finish First Sports Performance has been in existence since 1998 (under different names) but didn't
officially become what it is today until June of 2006. We have been growing in number of both successful
athletes and top level staff and consultants who want to be a part of what we have become, and what we
will continue to be. Our expertise lies in training programs for ice hockey, wrestling, MMA, SAQ (speed,
agility, quickness), vertical jump improvement, injury prevention/post rehabilitation, and female sports.
Training Methods
Our coaches use tried and true methodologies ranging from the highly successful Eastern Bloc training
regime (conjugate methods) to cutting edge current technologies and research. The performance training
system addresses all the various components of maximum physical performance along with mental,
emotional, visual, teamwork, and character building training.
Too many training programs by other coaches have athletes performing advanced exercises without ever
establishing the proper foundation that is key to retaining strength, speed, and power and that may further
increase the athlete's chances of getting injured. A program that is optimal for any athlete should first
address his/her functional limitations, weaknesses, and general fitness levels. As the athlete progresses,
more advanced and specific programming should be implemented to ensure the proper specific adaptation
of the athlete's nervous system, muscular system and cardio-respiratory system (training to enhance their
inter-connectedness in performance training). While there are many training systems and some coaches
are loyal to only one (Olympic weightlifting, power lifting, HIT, Westside methods, functional training, yoga,
interval training, circuit training, etc.), here at Finish First Sports Performance we employ various methods
specific to each athlete's current needs and the demands of his/her sport. Although, every method is
designed to work in performance enhancement, it has been our experience that for optimal results a coach
must know what specific situations demand which specific training methods. This is one of our strengths
that has produced excellent results over the years.

Finish First Sports Performance: The Goal Driven Lifestyle
Coach Hoy has directed and hosted many summer performance camps and clinics, speed and agility
camps and team programs throughout the east coast. He has quickly become one of best coaches in the
country for specific programming for ice hockey, wrestling, MMA, preventing injuries in young
athletes, speed training, and women's sports. He is a highly sought after speaker/clinician and
lectures each year on speed training and training for ice hockey at the NSCA PA Annual Clinic
for strength and conditioning professionals, athletic trainers, physical therapists and sports
medicine doctors.
Coach Hoy saw a need for a company that would provide the best sports performance training to all
interested athletes, with principles embedded in science and real-world practice, with added values of
leadership, integrity, and discipline, and with a commitment to the highest quality and value. Coach Hoy
wanted to create a private company that was more focused on the athletes getting trained than anything
else. As a result, he founded Finish First Sports Performance, LLC.
