Tryouts held for City of Rochester’s first travel football team

He says he’s committed to building up young athletes through football by providing social and emotional support, health and wellness and activities, and character-building tasks. 

“Rochester has the talent,” he says. “I played college ball, I grew up here. I know that Rochester always had the talent, we just didn’t have the opportunities that major cities had. So I wanted to bring that here. It wasn’t easy, but with the support of close friends, family, motivating me to do it. I figure I’ve been blessed financially so I’ll bring that back into the community.” 

RMG Elite is aiming to recruit about 20 athletes to fill their 2021 team roster. They plan to be on the road to compete in the Diamond Summer Shine Classics in Charlotte, N.C. in June.
