About Us
Pinnacle Sports Club was founded in Little Rock with a simple yet powerful vision: to create a space where young athletes can develop their skills, build character, and foster a lifelong love for sports—no matter their age or experience level. Since 2019, we have helped over 500 athletes grow in their game through recreational leagues, off-season training, and specialized clinics led by experienced coaches.
​
Our mission goes beyond competition; we strive to instill values of teamwork, discipline, confidence, and perseverance that will benefit athletes both on and off the court or field. At Pinnacle, we believe sports have the power to shape not just strong players, but strong individuals who are prepared for success in all aspects of life.
How Pinnacle Sports Came To Be
​​​ Pinnacle Sports Club was born out of a passion for sports and a desire to provide young athletes with more opportunities to grow.
Founder and Head Coach Lisa Grinfeder, a former professional athlete and experienced coach, recognized the need for year-round training in Little Rock, AR. With sports playing a pivotal role in her own journey and having competed at an international level, Lisa personally experienced the impact of sports in shaping discipline, teamwork, and perseverance—qualities that extend far beyond the game.​
After moving to Little Rock in 2017, Lisa noticed that many sports were only available seasonally. Wanting to keep her own children engaged in their favorite sports year-round, she began organizing off-season volleyball clinics. The overwhelming response made it clear that there was a greater need for structured, year-round programs in the community. From these small beginnings, Pinnacle Sports Club was created—a place where young athletes can continue to develop their skills, gain confidence, and experience the benefits of sports beyond just the game.
With a Masters in Sports Management and her background as a professional water skier (current Brazilian record holder) , College volleyball and tennis player, as well as her years of experience coaching young athletes , Lisa brings a wealth of knowledge, passion, and dedication to every athlete she works with. Her goal is to share not just technical skills, but also the life lessons and values that sports can teach.​
​ Today, Pinnacle Sports Club continues to grow, offering a supportive, high-energy environment where athletes of all levels can thrive. We are more than just a sports club—we are a community th believes in pushing limits, achieving goals, and building a foundation for lifelong success.
