Players Ready to Showcase In G.A.M.E 7 v 7 League
With no High School Football games taking place this Fall in the state of Virginia, recruits were left seeking an outlet to showcase their skills.
Many athletes get that chance now in G.A.M.E Academy, operated by longtime college assistant Zohn Burden, who starred at Salem High School in Virginia Beach as a player before most recently serving as an assistant coach with the ACC's Virginia Tech Hokies, and Deon Glover, father of UNC freshman CB and former #1 prospect in Rivals' VA Top 45, Tony Grimes.
The league, consisting of club teams, is not affiliated with schools and will begin play this Friday. September 11th, at the Virginia Beach Sportsplex and last for ten weeks.
The games will be available to be live-streamed by coaches from around the country to help the recruiting efforts of players, many of whom lost out on valuable evaluations this past summer after COVID-19 canceled camps and evaluations. COVID-19 also forced the VHSL to postpone fall sports, including football to February of 2021 at the earliest.
