Coach's Quote
"My goal for this program is to win a state championship at CKHS. The future starts now with our kids in the CKYA program. Our program will focus on the fundamentals of the game as well as character development. Football is the ultimate team sport that teaches our kids lessons about life.

Coach's Quote
"As a board member, parent and coach at CKYA and other associations through Kitsap County, my goal is always to provide athletes with challenges that they need to overcome to learn lessons on and off the field. We are building a strong program with dedicated coaches and family oriented teams. My goal before I leave CKYA, one day, is to have our program competing against teams not only within Kitsap County but outside as well, so athletes can see what is out there and challenge themselves even more!"

Coach's Quote
"My goal is to be a positive role model, teacher, and football enthusiast for the young athletes in our community. I focus on teaching the fundamentals of football that will help them progress to middle school and high school levels. The skills they learn now will not only make them safer on the field but will also foster a love and respect for the game. I firmly believe in treating each other like family, as always, One Team, One Heartbeat! Let’s Go CK!"
