During the holidays, we did home visits in all three communities to meet parents of new member and to look at our players school reports, to see how we can help them more off the field. This is also a time for us to encourage them in their academics and empower them, in what they want to be in the future. One of the mothers in Sir Lowry’s Pass testified of how her son has changed over the last two years since he’s been involved with the academy. He used to be a nuisance around the house, doing all sorts of naughty things and now he’s actually helpful and spends a lot of his time with friends, he made through the academy, playing sports and staying out of trouble.
