Our Story

Mini Me Sports was founded by two college athletes who, while working in a preschool, discovered a gaping hole in the curriculum -- sports!

With 8+ years of teaching and coaching experience, co-founders AJ Stone-Caldwell and Ronnie Spielman, created a sports development program for children ages 2.5-5. AJ and Ronnie are passionate about sports, making an impact, and developing the next generation. Their expertise and passion became Mini Me Sports.
