I do what I do 2day because of my Dad. He inspired me. It is with the heaviest of hearts that I share his passing. Make the most of every day especially with those you love & call family. maugergivnish.com/obituary/josep…

Best decision a parent can make is allowing their child to play tackle football. You will both learn about yourselves and each other if you do.

It is my lived and learned experience that playing youth football gives players an advantage when entering high school. An informed parent makes the best decision. Get your information from the appropriate sources. Go to our website for a page dedicated to over 30 medical reports

Waiting until high school to start football might seem safer,but it can actually increase injury risk. Starting young,with proper coaching and safe fundamentals, builds strength, confidence,and lifelong skills. Let’s set our young athletes up for success!#NFA #HonorImproveAdvance

We can’t be strangers all week & best friends on game day. Great players are built on trust, not drills alone. Relationships create stronger teams. Trust leads to effort, growth & fundamentals that stick. Football builds men, not just athletes. #NFA #HonorImproveAdvance

Football is one of the best classrooms for life. The right coach can shape a player’s future beyond the field. The sport teaches sacrifice, resilience, and supporting one another. That kind of leadership creates teams built on love, discipline, and growth. #HonorImproveAdvance

They found CTE in... woodpeckers? Yup. Researchers examined 10 woodpecker brains—and found signs of CTE. But here’s the kicker: just because it’s there, doesn’t mean pecking caused it. REMINDER: association isn’t causation. #HonorImproveAdvance

Being a coach is the next best role to being a parent. We train players to be agile and strong, but also thoughtful, composed, and team-oriented. Because the real win is raising young men who lead both on and off the field. #HonorImproveAdvance

"No better way to learn how to be a dad than to play offensive line.” Check out how football shapes more than players — it shapes fathers. Watch this video. Happy Father's Day! #honorimproveadvance #HFD2025 #HFD

From the field to the sidelines — and into a leadership role. This story is a powerful reminder that football isn’t just about the game. It’s about growth, grit, and giving back. Watch this video and see how one player’s journey came full circle. #honorimproveadvance

2025 NFL Draft Round 1 Update. Can’t wait for rounds 2 and 3 tonight. Lots of great players still on the board. A few of my favorites are Nick Emmanwori, Will Johnson, Mike Green, and Mason Taylor. Excited to see what team drafts these great athletes!
