The Inspiring Journey of Coach Marvin Hughes: Expanding Horizons Through Baseball And NU Breed.

Certain moments and mentors in sports leave an indelible mark on our lives. For me, that moment came when Coach Marvin Hughes took me to my first professional baseball game. It was a day that would ignite my passion for the game and expand my imagination and aspirations beyond what I thought possible.


As we entered the stadium, I was gripped by its grandeur. The towering structure, bustling with fans clad in team colors, created a thrilling and overwhelming electric atmosphere. The smell of popcorn and hot dogs wafted through the air, and the sound of cheers and chants filled my ears. It was a vibrant celebration of talent, commitment, and community. This experience broadened my understanding of what could be achieved through dedication and hard work.


Coach Hughes, a man of wisdom and experience, emphasized the importance of perseverance. He looked at me and confidently stated, "Getting here takes a lot of deliberate practice and hard work." Those words resonated deeply, serving as a mantra to guide my approach to baseball and life. Although I have yet to reach the professional level of play, the lessons I learned during those formative years instilled in me a robust work ethic and a relentless drive to dream big.


That foundational mindset has since blossomed into exciting new ventures. Fast-forward to today, and I am thrilled to share that our NU BREED Creative team has acquired a practice facility in Porterville. This new space represents a physical location and opportunity hub for aspiring athletes. We plan to build two courts pending landlord approval, enhancing our flexibility for practice and private training sessions. This facility will cater to volleyball and serve as the training ground for our newest endeavor: the NU BREED Cheerleading Academy.


The principles Coach Hughes imparted have fueled our journey from that memorable day at the baseball game to our current pursuits. Our commitment to deliberate practice and belief in the power of dreams have propelled us to create a vibrant community where talent can flourish. As we embark on this new chapter, we are excited to foster an environment that encourages creativity, discipline, and growth in all our athletes.


In conclusion, Coach Marvin Hughes's influence stretches far beyond the baseball diamond. His teachings have shaped my approach to sports and my vision for what is possible in athletics and beyond. As we open the doors to our practice facility and cheerleading academy, we carry forward his legacy of hard work and imagination, inspiring the next generation to dream big and reach their goals.


Train differently.


We are NU Breed, the rumor of something good.
