OUR STORY

From Grit to Greatness

The Young Soldiers Success Group (YSSG) carries a legacy that began in 2008 under the name Young Soldiers a title inspired by the discipline, honor, and resilience of the United States Armed Forces. Just as soldiers are trained to serve, protect, and lead with integrity, our organization was founded to instill those same foundational values in young men of color navigating life without strong, consistent guidance.

We built our culture on Loyalty, Respect, Leadership, Community, Purpose, Quality, Healthy Habits, and Self-Education a modern-day code that shapes boys into young men, and young men into the confident, self-sufficient leaders of tomorrow. We view these values not as rules, but as pillars the kind that support a lifelong brotherhood and a generational mission.

By 2018, we evolved into Young Soldiers Sports Group, using athletics as a launchpad to engage youth and teach discipline. But when the world changed in 2020 with the COVID-19 pandemic, so did we. The crisis revealed something deeper: our work was never just about sports it was about saving lives, shaping identity, and building a path to purpose.

This awakening led to our transformation into Young Soldiers Success Group (YSSG) a name that reflects our full commitment to personal development in mind, body, and spirit. Today, our programs span mentorship, leadership training, cultural education, wellness, and emotional growth all designed to build not just better students or athletes, but stronger men and more conscious global citizens.

What began as a community effort is now a movement one that calls on young men of color to rise, reclaim their power, and carry forward a legacy of excellence, purpose, and service. YSSG is not just an organization it’s a lifelong tribe, built to transform individuals, families, and entire communities.

We’re not just preparing our members for the next challenge. We’re preparing them to lead the future.
