About

Champion Forward is a non-profit organization, founded by World Series MVP Ben Zobrist, that helps teenage athletes, parents, and coaches experience sports in a mentally and emotionally healthy way. The current sports journey creates more pressure, adversity and visibility than ever before.

As a solution to these challenges, we equip high schools, colleges and organizations with a simple, repeatable emotional intelligence training system. This system is comprised of proven tools that help athletes and coaches learn how to process feelings, respond to failure, and navigate success in a healthy way. We are focused on creating sports cultures that demonstrate high levels of self-awareness, balance, and connection—both on and off the field.

What customers say

“Champion Forward has already created a culture in my office as the athletic director that has changed the feel and helped athletes, coaches and teachers open up more with really how they feel. The Cheq Ins are simple- but magical. This is a life changing curriculum that will move across our country I believe in a positive way and help thousands with mental and emotional health.”
