2025-2026 Team 220 Info Sheet
Team Name: Project 220 (Second to None)
Purpose: To foster and cultivate our athletes’ capabilities built on leadership, creativity, trust, & camaraderie. As a traveling team, our athletes receive the best competition simulations and training, visiting various gyms and assembling a vast variety of styles, movements, holds, and vocabulary.
