"I appreciated how much care and detail was put into the UoG Summer Tour. Our hosts and coaches were so welcoming and accommodating; they went way beyond what we ever could have expected! They truly cared about giving our boys top notch experience in all aspects...
I felt safe leaving my son in Jay, Dave, and Mal's care. Knowing that he was in good hands, and that they would take care of him and his needs, and they would challenge him to be the best version of himself as a young man and an athlete was more than I could have hoped for. My son wasn't just another kid on a tour, he was an important and valuable member of the team." Margaret Reynolds, Summer Tour 2022 Parent Attendee |

"The Summer Tour was an excellent experience for our son and us as parents. UDA did an exceptional job of providing great training on the university campus. The coaches are excellent with good insight into UK professional football. Playing UK teams highlighted what year round football is all about.
The players got a good sense of what life at a university is like and came away with a renewed energy for football that will carry through with this Fall's High School play. Excellent tour, informative and enjoyable. Highly recommend it." Eddie Turberville, Past Summer Tour Parent Attendee |
