Players -Parents Testimonials

This program has helped fine tune my son's ability, and strength. We met Damian just by chance from a friend and she said that the way he coaches is second to none, and she was right. Damian explains what you need to not only on the field in training but at home. This is a program that all players should take advantage of, if they want to succeed. Seeing results immediately after this combine is priceless- just ask the starting team players who all attended this combine.

Athletic Connection was a great experience. I was skeptical at first because it is unheard of having a real legit football combine in northern California. But Coach Lowery and his staff know their stuff. They are doing all they can to promote the north state and its athletes. All the coaches are very easy to talk too and always ready to help. The combine is a good opportunity to either post some good numbers or practice for the real deal, if your an underclassmen. After attending the Athletic Connection combine for two years in a row, I know exactly what to expect when it comes to combines and how to prepare and also have been invited to a Nike Training Camp through Damian. Thanks alot Athletic Connection its been an experience.

This combine will be a valuable step towards my sons goal of going on to play football in college. Thank you again for the opportunity.
