Kicking into action

Here’s what Tony had to say: “Football is more than just a game—it’s about teamwork, resilience and pride. At ADG 2026 I’m excited to guide the next generation of Deaf football players. They have incredible talent and I’m looking forward to helping them shine and lead the way!”
