Bryst Football Academy Players Travel From All Over Ontario

The BFA has recruited players from all over Ontario. Some of these players, as young as 10 years old, travel to training and games from up to four hours away. This is as a result of parents and players seeking the best coaching for their child for their future development. Players are traveling in from Belleville, Owen Sound, Collingwood and Welland three times a week for training and one game.

One special case has a 10 year old boy from Sudbury, Carver Grenon, who trains at home and travels down on weekends to play with the BFA U10 team. His parents have now moved house to the GTA, to allow Carver to train with Bryst during the week. The following is an excerpt from Todd Grenon (father);

"The professionalism of Bryst International and all of its' coaching staff is truly admirable. We are so fortunate that our son is involved in such a great experience. This is a very exciting time in our families lives. I would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank each of you for all the assistance, generosity and support you have provided Carver and my family.

Carver is my inspiration. During all this travel, and occasional periods of fatigue, there was only one time that he asked if we could take a plane in order to avoid the long trip home. A testament of a boy who has a true love and passion for the beautiful game."
