My son loves football. Each week he trains 4 days with his Elite team, twice with a personal trainer, and twice at a speed academy.
Thank you for generously supporting Denis in this year’s competition. Your support helps empower the V Foundation for Cancer Research and the Why Not You Foundation in their respective missions to save lives and empower today's youth to become tomorrow's leaders.
He loves his team. The other players are his friends off the field and he loves spending time with them. He also enjoys being on the field, where he loves tackling and making successful plays. He respects the coaches and always looks forward to the next practice.
He is inspired by his football coaches, his trainers, and NFL players such as Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Tua Tagovailoa, and many others.
It gives me great joy seeing his progression in the sport. One particular moment was seeing him make an interception against an 11U player at one of his practice. He is in 10U.
