Uplift
Flag Football is a Christ-centered sports program that builds faith and
character while teaching excellence in football. The program seeks to focus
players on Jesus and His grace such that their faith would come through strongly
on the playing field and life.
Uplift
Football provides high-caliber coaching and skill-building. Each session starts
with a huddle where we put our focus on God, then we run through a series of
instructional drills, and we end with a scrimmage game. Players will learn all
of the techniques, details, and skills for playing quarterback, running back,
wide receiver, linebacker and defensive back.
Uplift Football offers the chance for your son to:
-worship God through teamwork, dignified competition, perseverance, self-control, and giving his best
-receive excellent instruction in football skills, from fundamentals to advanced techniques
-experience the fun of football without the physical risks of tackling

Biography:
God has
drawn me to Him for the last 20 years and has called me to minister through
sports. I have seen God teach me many lessons of faith when playing sports.
Athletic competition and practice provided me with a proving ground for
applying God’s word. As I interacted with teammates, opponents and coaches,
and pursued excellence on the field, I learned to give my best for the Lord and
practice my faith. My hope is that when young athletes see their faith in
action, they can translate this trust in God toward much more important areas of
life. God blessed me with a High School football career that lead to being
named All-Jersey Shore and recruited by Division 1 programs. Now, God has
really blessed me with the chance to share my experience through coaching.
Also, I have served as bible study leader and Senior Deacon at the Evangelical
Free Church in Windsor Locks (who is supporting this ministry). I am truly
blessed with a wonderful wife and three great
children.
