Harlis Meaders-Camp Director
My name is Coach Harlis Meaders I am the CEO and Co-Founder of Start 2 Finish Athletic Camps.
For over 28 years I have been honored to have the opportunity to coach, lead and mentor young men and women through the vehicle of collegiate athletics at four different universities, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Florida State University, Colgate University and Western Carolina University. In 2019 I was selected to be the throws coach for the USA Track and Field Team for the World University Games in Finland. Over that span I have seen hundreds of kids develop and mature into young adults, college graduates and outstanding athletes
My guiding philosophy has been and continues to be that champions are the byproduct of developing, the person, the student and the athlete. My greatest joy comes from watching and helping our young adults navigate this crucial point in their lives as student athletes and building champions.
Welcome to S2F Athletic Camps where we are building tomorrow’s champion today.
