Avery

What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

Avery loves football because it gives him the chance to grow, to get better and better with every practice and every play. He leads with heart, determination, and explosive speed on the field. His passion continues to grow, and it shows in everything he does. Athletic, driven, and a true all-around athlete, Avery isn't just focused on his own success, he's a team player through and through. Whether he's pushing himself or lifting up others, he’s the kind of player every coach dreams of.

Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

Off the field, his dedication doesn’t stop. Whether it’s training, setting goals, or simply pushing himself to be better every day, he carries a quiet discipline. As the middle child, he’s the spark between siblings,carrying strength, warmth, and resilience. Behind his speed and strength lies a deep, quiet strength: he lost his identical twin brother, a loss that has shaped him more deeply than most could ever know. But he runs for two now, with every stride, every touchdown, and every dream.

What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

My son Avery had never played soccer before, but the first time he stepped on the field, he dominated; scoring seven goals in his very first game! He was so excited. Now, he's focused on tackle football, and his passion only continues to grow. Whether he's racing to be the first in drills or circling back to push his teammates through, Avery leads with heart and determination. Watching him train hard, following the routines of his idols, all with a big smile and even bigger drive.Makes mom proud
