Jesse Haines is a manager of Sanford Sports Performance. He started in 2004 with the then-Sioux Valley POWER program.

Haines developed a passion for sports at a young age, and that passion continued after finishing his multi-sport athletic career at the University of South Dakota.

Since 2002, he has worked with athletes of all ages from elementary school to the professional level.

Haines understands that working with young athletes means taking care of what parents value most – their children. He does his best to earn the trust of both parents and athletes. He strives to create an atmosphere that helps athletes push themselves and improve through each program and session. 

Haines values seeing athletes progress and succeed, and he feels rewarded watching them stay with the program throughout their school career and beyond.

Haines is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) through the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA).
