Some of Our Football Success Stories:

A Father’s Testimonial

"We had 2 goals coming into this program :

find a safe; hospitable; loving (I use thatword because I felt every one of your

staff showed that to Quinn and myself when I visited); professional environment.

Secondly, to secure some reputable relationships with UK teams and

professionals that we could leverage for the 2014 season that would trend us

down the path of scholarship football in aprofessional football setting.

In my opinion, I think both of those goals exceeded our expectations and I owe it

to you guys for helping us find our way over this last year.

I want to personally thank you for giving me the confidence that you always had

Quinn's best interests in mind.

You gave me total peace of mind that he was always in a safe environment

where he was surrounded by well - intentioned adults, who allowed Quinn to

mature at his own pace."
