Our Middle School All-American Games will feature 70 of the nation’s best athletes in 6th, 7th and 8th grade. Two 35-man rosters will square off in each grade level mixing talent from the East and West coast together to produce the best possible competition for our All-American Game. Thus, the nation’s best players can display their talents to the nation via a live internet stream audience and truly be tested by facing the very best in youth football.  Teams are determined after a  individual drills in which each participating athlete displays his skills. The entire practice week is done in full pads.  Afterward, there’s a draft to determine teams and thus pitting the best possible competition against each other to produce the most competitive game possible.
Our All-American game platform is truly the best in the country. Not because of the uniforms we wear, the swag we provide or the game location.  It’s simply because we attract the best talent in the country and that talent gets a chance to be tested and for many for their first time in their middle school careers. The test is with elite level competition.  Many of our 8th graders begin playing varsity in 9th grade because of their skill level.  Here are some of the alumni from our very first game that are now participating on the college ranks.

Media Coverage of our All-American Games

DAILY COVERAGE OF THE ALL-AMERICAN GAME WEEK

When you talk about exposure, you have to mean what you say.  We have daily coverage of each day of All-American week.  We will do recaps and highlights. We are the best in giving your kids the platform to shine and do whatever they can to turn heads and begin building their football resumes with a goal of gaining a college scholarship.

AUXILLARY MEDIA HIGHLIGHTS 

We were blessed with a great platform to promote athletes.  However, even though we are a media corporation with our own website and social media to expose our athletes completing on our national platform, we often attract the media coverage of auxiliary organizations.  Check out this video of our 2018 Middle School All-American game that got over 200K views on YouTube done by Beyond Reality.

HIGHLIGHTS OF EACH GAME

And that’s a very good thing. Excited to be on an SEC campus to take in some nationally-televised college football in the first full weekend of action for this beloved sport. The Miami Hurricanes visit the Florida Gators today and the significance of this game’s outcome is buried in the foundation of what both storied programs have established over generations.Each looks to return to prominence. The Gators have had the most recent national success, its most recent national championship coming in 2008, which was proceeded just a few years earlier by a national championship in 2006, they own three titles overall.  Miami’s last of their five national championships came in 2001.  Both head coaches, Miami’s Mario Cristobol and especially Florida’s Billy Napier have a significant amount of pressure coming into this season for similar reasons.  Program expectations are to compete for national titles and conference championships. There’s been little of that on both sides lately.  However, today can be the catalyst for a big move in that direction.  /*! elementor - v3.23.0 - 05-08-2024 */ .elementor-heading-title{padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title[class*=elementor-size-]>a{color:inherit;font-size:inherit;line-height:inherit}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-small{font-size:15px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-medium{font-size:19px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-large{font-size:29px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xl{font-size:39px}.elementor-widget-heading .elementor-heading-title.elementor-size-xxl{font-size:59px}What's at stake? Bragging rights! Need anything else be said? Both programs need a win in order to gain traction in-state with recruiting, prestige and all the normal reasons you want to beat an opponent that looks like you.  Miami would look great beating an SEC team in week 1, it hasn’t happened lately.  Florida has to win the game based on the most difficult schedule in the country.  Miami isn’t the only tough team they get at home. If they should lose, where do wins come from? Home slates with Texas A&M, Kentucky, and LSU and Ole Miss in back-to-back weeks don’t seem fair. Conversely, the Hurricanes have spared no expense in off-season talent acquisition to upgrade their roster.  Does that faucet stay on if the Hurricanes don’t win big this season? Would see necessary to start impressing donors out of the gate. /*! elementor - v3.23.0 - 05-08-2024 */ .elementor-widget-video .elementor-widget-container{overflow:hidden;transform:translateZ(0)}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper{aspect-ratio:var(--video-aspect-ratio)}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper iframe,.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper video{height:100%;width:100%;display:flex;border:none;background-color:#000}@supports not (aspect-ratio:1/1){.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper{position:relative;overflow:hidden;height:0;padding-bottom:calc(100% / var(--video-aspect-ratio))}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper iframe,.elementor-widget-video .elementor-wrapper video{position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0}}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-open-inline .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay{position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0;background-size:cover;background-position:50%}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay{cursor:pointer;text-align:center}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay:hover .elementor-custom-embed-play i{opacity:1}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay img{display:block;width:100%;aspect-ratio:var(--video-aspect-ratio);-o-object-fit:cover;object-fit:cover;-o-object-position:center center;object-position:center center}@supports not (aspect-ratio:1/1){.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay{position:relative;overflow:hidden;height:0;padding-bottom:calc(100% / var(--video-aspect-ratio))}.elementor-widget-video .elementor-custom-embed-image-overlay img{position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0}}.elementor-widget-video .e-hosted-video .elementor-video{-o-object-fit:cover;object-fit:cover}.e-con-inner>.elementor-widget-video,.e-con>.elementor-widget-video{width:var(--container-widget-width);--flex-grow:var(--container-widget-flex-grow)} TE Cam McCormick, one of the most tenured NCAA football player with the TD reception for Miami. #Canes strike first from inside 10 to score.

Cam Ward is just that, a difference maker. He’s poised, deliberate, competitive and athletic. He makes more plays for Miami than anyone at the position in a generation.  Florida isn’t a bad team. Miami’s just a good team.  Or so it appears after just a few short quarters into the season.
