On Thursday, 1/24/2013, we held the 1st Annual Cougar Combine, an opportunity for our Cougar Football players to show off their speed and agility skills and establish benchmarks for this 2013 Off-Season.

Over half of our returning team was available to complete the 40 yard dash, "L"/3 Cone Drill, and 5/10/5 Pro Shuttle as well as test their maximum Bench and Squat Press.

Coaches and Players are pumped to know our starting point and motivated to become better young men and better football players during the Off-Season!

"I PAY THE PRICE"

What are YOU Going to Do NOW?!

The 2012 North Fulton Forsyth Touchdown Club Chamber Bowl featured Holy Spirit Prep's own Sean O'Connell.  Sean participated at Defensive Back and on Special Teams. 

Our coaching staff is extremely proud of those student athletes who are finding a way to get the necessary work done in the off-season.  Enjoy this early off-season preview of members of the 2013 HSP Cougar football team.

What are YOU going to do NOW?!!

Dates are being set for Spring Practice a Summer Mini-Camp and for the start of Summer/Fall Practices. With enough participation we may add a Spring passing league with opportunities to stretch our abilities while challenging local schools. 

Be on the look out for calendar details following the Glory For Christ League Planning meeting on January 19th.

Players and parents please plan ahead so that Cougar Football players are not absent from these instrumental off-season and preseason events.  Calendar details coming SOON!

Our off-season is off to a great start!

Happy New Year Players and Parents!

As we continue to develop a Football Program that develops MEN of Character and Integrity we are asking each of you to pause for a moment and start to consider where you are headed.  Leaders are not prepared to lead without some sense of self and some direction; a goal or objective that they are striving to reach.

Through email or in the form of a hard copy we want you complete and submit to Coach Taylor ([email protected]) a list of all of the criteria that you currently have for college selection.  If you haven’t stopped to think about that list before, now is the time.  What do you want or need from the college experience?  We encourage you to list as many things that come to mind and not focus on the quality of your responses at this time.  You might list things like location, specific programs/majors, but it is important that you consider those things that are important to YOU.   We’ll take further steps later to narrow your focus and criteria.

Also we want you to list at least 3 colleges/universities that you are currently considering.

All HSP Football Players (Grades 8 through 11) are expected to complete the attached assignment no later than Wednesday, 1/9/2013 (the file is uploaded below).

Our coaching staff is looking forward to the opportunity to being apart of our players growth on and off the field this Spring!

Thanks!
