"Our son, Jaden Perreira, played Quarterback at New Rochelle HS in New York and won a State Championship in 2019. Our son had dreamed of playing College football, however, struggled to get the recognition to receive an offer from a college. We looked for help to showcase our son’s talent and we were blessed to find Coach D’anna. With the help of Coach D’anna, my son had an opportunity to show his talent at the NYS Elite Showcase and from there received an offer from Alfred State College and went on to win the ECFC Championship and received a championship ring in his his first year. Coach D’anna is one of a kind, his care is impeccable, he always treated my son like family, and called and texted him to make sure he was okay. We are forever grateful and thankful for what Coach D’anna has done for our son."
