What is Youth Athlete of the Year?
Learn MoreLegends biological father has been absent from his life since he was six months old, this is brought a lot of questions and uncertainty to him at a young age, but football has given him something to redirect the negative energy to and build meaningful relationships with other male role models. Legend has expressed that when he plays football he feels like nothing else matters.
Legend‘s biggest motivation is his mom. He works hard academically bringing home straight A’s and on the field so that he can build a life that he feels like he deserves and give back to his mom when he was older.
Legend was competing against a team in a football game and an opponent got tackled extremely hard and was down on the ground. He immediately went over to the kid and reached out his hands to help up . In this moment, I realize that it wasn’t just about competition for him, but it was about being a good person on and off the field.
