Sanford POWER, a program that incorporates the latest in strength development, speed, agility and plyometrics to local athletes, will be moving to a new location this fall. The new building located at 3401 N. 14th St. in Bismarck, formerly occupied by Home Depot, will be close to three times the size of the current Sanford POWER building located at 2020 Lovett Ave. in Bismarck.
“We have exceedingly outgrown our current building,” said Mike Salwei, Sanford POWER manager in Bismarck. “This new space will allow us to help athletes improve their performance based on their specific needs and it also gives us the ability to offer POWER to more athletes during the course of the year.”
The new 21,000 square foot building will feature 10,000 square feet of turf, which is larger than the entire current POWER building. This turf will enable POWER to expand the opportunities for more skill based academies for soccer, baseball, girls fast pitch softball and it will also allow room for a future football academy. In addition to the turf, the building will also feature a two-lane indoor track for enhanced speed training, state-of-the-art training modalities and on-site physical therapists. A Return to Performance program will also be added at the new location. This program is an innovative and injury-specific program for athletes recovering from an injury or surgery.
“When you look at all of the activities young athletes are involved in today, a facility like this is much needed in Bismarck-Mandan,” said Dr. Craig Lambrecht, executive vice president of Sanford Health in Bismarck. “This program is instrumental in enhancing youth development in our community. Mike Salwei and his team work with these athletes on an individual level to help them become the best athletes they can possibly be.”
Construction on the new building is expected to complete in October 2017. To enroll in the program or to learn more, visit sanfordpower.com/bismarck.
