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

He loves the team work and the overall playing sports.

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

I would say his older brother and cousin. My nephew use to play football all through middle school and high school. He he also watched football on television

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

When he tackled a kid and made a touch down. Because at first he was scared to play then he grew to love the sport and also his team.
