Next Level Greats has taught my son more than we could ever imagine. My son started out training and 7 vs. 7 football with NLG 2 years ago. Not only has the program made my son a better athlete, NLG has made my son a better student in the classroom. The coaches at NLG have been leaders, role models and a positive influence to our children. We know for sure my son would have not received a Division 1 offer to play football in college if not for Next Level Greats Program. Our family cannot thank them enough for all their support and love they have shown our son.

“NLG is a world class organization who provides a great foundation for student athletes. My nephew was an unknown student athlete with zero college offers last year. With the assistants of NLG he has over 10 offers and has the opportunity to play college football in 2015.”

“NLG has lots of good mentors he guide us through our NCAA journey. It also shows also teaches us how to be good men to society even if we don’t play football”

Next Level Greats have demonstrated time after time the commitment to the development of successful young people, not just athletes. They emphasize the importance of education, social and athletic development.

“Next Level Greats is an excellent program for players wanting to improve and get noticed! The NLG coaching staff is fantastic and committed to helping players move on to the next level. My son gained skills and confidence competing in 7on7 tournaments with NLG. He was offered eight Division I scholarships this spring.”

“Without the Next Level Greats program, I would not have been able to get as much exposure on my own as I did in NLG. The coaches were more like mentors than coaches to me. I may not be in the position I am in today without the guidance they gave me. I am now playing Division 1 football at Stony Brook University on full scholarship. NLG is needed in our community to help young athletes fulfill their dreams while also getting a higher education which is needed in today’s society.”

The entire Next Level Greats Team is interested in the young men in their program, not only as athletes but also as young men, young leaders, young people and, most importantly, as students. The NLG Team sets expectations, and works with the young men in their program to achieve, and sometimes enforce, those standards. NLG provides a forum for young men to develop not only as football players, but also as men. In terms of football, NLG helped my son, Nick, develop confidence and better football skills. Coaching was always positive, even if the message was critical of a certain aspect of a particular play or game. I cannot speak more highly of this staff, and of all the hard work and energy they invest in the young men who are part of their program. NLG leads the players in their program by example, and the season has shown the success of their approach.

“NLG is doing amazing things to help kids get exposure they may not have received otherwise. The benefit to young players are 2 main things: 1) they get to compete with the best in the area and get exposed to the same training as kids getting offers to college. Developing good fundamentals is key because college coaches expect kids to arrive 90% developed. Because so many kids getting early training, our inner city kids miss out without NLG 2) NLG focuses kids on good character and good grades early. A must if you want to play in college”
