The owners of JTF are two military veterans - Ronda Johnson with 12 years of Army service and Michael   Mc Closkey with 14 years in the Marine Corps.  Following our military careers, we continued to serve our Department of Defense brothers and sisters as Civil Servants for an additional 10+ years.  After the loss of our fathers, we did some deep soul searching on our path in life.  We decided it was time to change the focus of our lives and pursue our passion - bringing sports, fitness, and fun to under-served rural communities.  Using the training and knowledge we accumulated over years of military and civilian service, we developed the concept of the Joint Training Facility (JTF).  Just as a Joint Task Force brings together experts from all military services and agencies to focus on one issue, the JTF will bring together experts, trainers, and teachers for the benefit of the community.  For more information on What JTF Offers, please see the video below.

 

After traveling from the Eastern Shore to the Mountains of Maryland, we decided to Open our business in Western Maryland. The Joint Training Facility is a fully mobile sports and entertainment service. We bring the facility to you. We are here to continue our service in the under-served rural communities in Western Maryland, South/SouthWestern Pennsylvania, and Surrounding areas of West virginia. Rural communities miss out on the sports and recreational opportunities readily available in suburban and urban areas.  

 

JTF Mission Statement
