Former Redskins and i9 Sports Open Fit4Kids in Loudoun

Eddie Mason and Ladell Betts hope their partnership helps kids focus on fitness, while remaining emotionally, educationally and spiritually balanced.

Last month, former football players Eddie Mason and Ladell Betts opened a facility in partnership with MASE Kids Fit4Life and i9 Sports to provide a safe energetic environment for youngsters in the county with an eye toward fitness.

Mason and Betts share a passion for childhood fitness, which led to their vision for the facility at 21580 Atlantic Boulevard, Suite 125, in Sterling—right across Route 28 from Ashburn.

The pros, along with a team of certified instructors, teach life skills and fitness development to students ages 3-12, with the intent to empower minds, strengthen bodies and build leaders for the future. As part of the program, Mason and Betts hope to use sports and fitness to instill health and wellness in their students.
