Miami Northwest Express Track

The Miami NW Express Track Club is a 501c3 non-profit organization founded by the legendary Coach Jesse Holt Jr. in 1979. He was an accomplished Athlete, Coach, Trainer, Motivator, Father, and Mentor to thousands of young men, women, and children around the world, and the Head Coach of our South Florida team, which averages more than 250 club members each year. Our club is open to adult competitors who double as volunteer coaches, role models, mentors, and chaperones. Since our inception, the club has produced 80 individual state champions who have won 240 gold medals and countless Junior Olympic and National Championship titles. In 2008, we had two USA Olympians who competed in Beijing, China. One athlete won a bronze medal. One was a finalist in her specialty event. We have had seven team members represent the team United States in international track and field competitions. We've had one world champion and one Olympic youth champion.

Our primary objectives are:

1) To keep kids off the streets and engaged in a meaningful learning environment

2) To encourage physical fitness as a means of developing healthy bodies and sound minds

3) To provide coaching, mentoring, and tutorial support that redirects negative behavior and encourages outstanding academic, family, and life achievement

4) To provide peace of mind to children and families in need

 5) To use track and field as a tool to expose children to a world of opportunity
