About Our Academy

Sports became to competitive, school sports more professional and very competitive.

We believe sports should be played to relax and be enjoyed.

The Academy is part of Unplug Sports, providing training online and on the field.

We prepare players during the off season January - June for the schools softball league.

Our youngest player in the Academy is 9 years old.

We train coaches on the 3D Model, focusing on Body (Physical & Skills), Mind (Game Management, Mental aspects) and Spirit (Heart of the player, well being)

Our mision

We are a M.A.D (make a difference) community working to see the world transformed by Jesus Christ through the influence of coaches and athletes.

Why we do it
We desire to see every coach and athlete enter into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ and His church.

What we do
We seek to make disciples through our strategy of engaging, equipping and empowering coaches and athletes to know and grow in Christ and lead others to do the same..

As a coach or athlete, it can feel like the hustle and grind never stops.

How you spend your “24/7” matters. Jesus is ready to give you the rest and rejuvenation that you need, you just have to slow down enough to receive it.

Learn how to go from being overwhelmed by the demands of sport, to living from the overflow of hope and joy that comes from Jesus

Our Hive

About Unplug Sports – One Hive, Many Paths

Unplug Sports is built like a hive — one ecosystem with many specialised divisions, all working together toward a single purpose:
to reconnect people with sport, purpose, and community.

Each division has its own focus, platform, and audience, but none operate in isolation. Together, they form a living system where technology, education, competition, faith, creativity, and community support and strengthen one another.

🐝 The Hive Structure

At the centre of the hive is Unplug Sports Media (unplugsports.co.za) — our storytelling engine.
This is where ideas, insights, research, and conversations are shared through articles, digital magazines, and media content that connect everything we do.

Surrounding the core are our specialised cells:

AI (ai.unplugsports.co.za)
Our innovation lab — exploring how technology, automation, and AI can support coaching, learning, administration, and creative problem-solving in sport.

Akademie (akademie.unplugsports.co.za)
The educational heart of the hive — focused on softball development, coach education, umpire training, and long-term athlete growth.

Training (training.unplugsports.co.za)
Structured courses, certifications, and learning pathways that turn knowledge into practical skill — for coaches, officials, leaders, and volunteers.

Bulls Softball Club (bulls.unplugsports.co.za)
Where theory meets reality — a competitive softball club that lives out the principles taught across the hive.

Leagues (leagues.unplugsports.co.za)
Organised competition designed with development, fairness, and enjoyment in mind — creating meaningful game environments for players of all levels.

Social – Double Ball (social.unplugsports.co.za)
The fun, inclusive side of the hive — social sport that removes pressure and brings people back to playing for joy, connection, and laughter.

Events (events.unplugsports.co.za)
Bringing people together through tournaments, clinics, workshops, and experiences that activate the hive in real-world spaces.

Ministry (ministry.unplugsports.co.za)
The soul of Unplug Sports — using sport as a platform for service, discipleship, encouragement, and purpose beyond the scoreboard.

🌍 One Mission, Many Expressions

While each division serves a specific role, they all align under one philosophy:

Development over shortcuts

People over platforms

Purpose over pressure

Community over isolation

Whether you’re learning, competing, coaching, serving, or simply playing for fun — there’s a place for you in the hive.

Unplug Sports isn’t just a brand.
It’s a connected movement — many divisions, one heartbeat.

“I can recommend Archdeco highly enough. They took my ideas and made them even better, and had all sorts of suggestions for details I would never have thought of, which made all the difference to the end result. The team totally got what I wanted and always managed to find just the right piece or the right style.”
