Maverick Program

All prospective Wranglers must complete a semester long program called the “Maverick Program”. We target young men who have displayed leadership, commitment to service, scholarship, athletic ability, and the willingness to accept a challenge. As a Maverick you will be given weekly responsibilities which you are expected to complete both individually and as a class which include multiple hours of community service, study hours twice a week, weekly meetings, opportunities to meet the individuals of the organization one on one, and a rigorous workout program designed to productively challenge and strengthen your body. There is no doubt the Maverick Program is difficult to complete, but you can be assured that every individual is treated with the utmost respect. Maverick candidates will never be asked to do anything humiliating, degrading, disreputable, or harmful to him or others. We pride ourselves with our actions, and upon completion you will be linked with your fellow Maverick class for the rest of your life. We have a 30 year history that proves the friendships which are formed through Mavericks will be the men that loyally stay by your side through the hardest of times and best of times. It is an experience unlike any other.

The program is constructed to help Mavericks understand the core values of the Texas Wranglers. Everything we do has a purpose, and the activities help strengthen the principles we believe help develop a more fulfilling life. Most everything you do as a Maverick will be done as a class, and one of the most notable tasks entails completing the workout program. The workouts are run by ex-Rangers and Special Forces who focus on fitness, team building, self discipline, strength enhancement, and cardiovascular endurance to improve your physical and mental performance. The workouts are difficult, but they offer challenges that reinforce an attitude of perseverance we believe is important for everyone to understand, as well as an inclination towards athletics which we also value.

Mavericks is more than a club or a resume builder. Mavericks requires grit and determination, but if you’re willing to accept the challenge you’ll find satisfaction in more ways than you could ever think possible.
