ABOUT COLLEGIATE ELITES
Our story.
Collegiate Elites was founded in 2017 by Derrick Daigre Jr. after finishing out his college career at the University of Washington. Derrick wanted a way to stay connected to sports and balance his newfound working career.
It was important to give back to the sport that made him who he was and quickly he realized thousandS of other athletes struggle WITH this same dilemma to stay connected to sport as they transition into the working world.
While working, Derrick became a resource for connecting parents and youth athletes locally with other coaches and trainers for Performance training and thus, Collegiate Elites was founded.
