A Name We Keep Saying
The DaVari Armstrong Scholarship.
In 2023 we awarded a $1,700 scholarship in DaVari Armstrong's name to one young woman in our program. One award, one name, one family — the kind of number that never makes a headline and matters more than most of them.
The same year, 47.92% of 81 football athletes received scholarship support so that cost was never the reason a kid stopped playing.

From the moment he walked on the field, Maurice was embraced like family.
The Wyatts write that A&B cared about the whole child — preparing him in the classroom and on the field, court, ring, or mat — and that they watched him mature in his study habits and grow in his service to the community.

Being a part of something bigger than you is more important than individual success.
Narcy Jackson
Co-Founder
This is far more than a club team.
Micah's mother describes walking into the center for the first time and being met by founder Narcy and coaches Rod and Kyle — and what stayed with her wasn't the training talk but their reasons for doing it: exposure to colleges, careers, and alumni her son would not otherwise have seen.
