Hotbed Exclusive: Inside the Pasadena Lakes 13U Program (Video)

Posted in:


Football Hotbed caught up with Coach Ro Wallance of the Pasadena Lakes Panthers 13U team in South Florida, one of the teams getting most of the early buzz in the area.  It’s because their move over from the Florida Youth Football League as the Miami Gardens Bulldogs , commonly known as North Dade, was quite the buzz worth topic in the off-season.

For coach Ro, he and his staff have consistently been in the thick of things from a playoff youth football stand point and they’re off to good start after defeating rival Pembroke Pines Optimist (PPO) 33-0 in their American Youth Football League opener.
