Bracey Performance

We’re thrilled to welcome Troy Miller as a Sports Performance Coach at Bracey Performance!

Miller, a familiar athlete with Bracey after his previous off-season training here, is a serial competitor, health enthusiast, positive psychology believer, and golf addict. A former professional baseball player, Troy’s journey took him from Little League fields to AAA ball and big league spring training with the New York Mets, where he sharpened his competitive edge and honed his skills as a team player.

His athletic journey began in Little League, but his passion for fitness and the outdoors was ignited at age six in the Capitola Jr. Lifeguard Program. Summers spent with seasoned lifeguards and older peers helped shape his leadership skills, earning him the Team Captain award twice. This experience also sparked his love for surfing, leading him to surf worldwide, from the Pacific and Atlantic coasts to Hawaii, Lake Michigan, and the Dominican Republic. Troy is an adventurer at heart. His athletic versatility extends to his newest challenge, golf, a sport he’s fully embraced with the same dedication that defined his baseball career.

After signing with the Blue Jays out of the University of Michigan, he played in their AA system. Traded to the New York Mets in an early deadline deal he would overcome the setbacks of multiple injuries and surgeries. Troy’s return to big league spring training in 2023 reinforced his belief in the power of teamwork, positive psychology, and personal growth. His journey is a testament to resilience and passion, which makes him a perfect fit for Bracey Performance.

Happily married in December 2023, he and his wife Alyssa, along with their energetic golden retriever Roo, who only has one speed and a testament of the best way to live, are excited to be back in Midwest weather and taking on this new adventure back in Chicago.

Join us in welcoming Coach Troy to Bracey Performance! We can’t wait to see how his expertise and enthusiasm will inspire our athletes to reach new highest potential! 💪⚾️
