“Jay Urich with Banner Player Development has been a HUGE part of helping our athletic department thrive. His intentional approach to developing student-athletes — especially in leadership, discipline, and accountability — has made a measurable impact on our program. The platform he’s built to invest in young people is truly incredible.”

Athletes who go through Banner leave changed

Here's what coaches are telling us:

  • "My athletes are more confident in who they are beyond their sport."

  • "They're leading with more clarity and conviction."

  • "They're better equipped to handle the mental and emotional weight of being a high-performing athlete, and clearer on who they're becoming, in sports and beyond."

Banner equips you with the tools, training, and in-person sessions to make that happen for your athletes — without adding to your plate.

Topics include: identity & purpose, college athletics realities, humility & coachability, work ethic, influence vs. impact, academic growth, networking, digital responsibility, NIL education, interview skills, life after sports, and more.
