At Value of Sport we are extremely fortunate to have the following individuals share with our students their personal experience with the Value they derived from Sport and how it helped shaped their life and successful person they’ve become.
Jamie Staton
“I love this program. Ensuring every 4th grader in Manchester will have complete access to equipment and teams/leagues is an absolute home run. And then providing them with a mentor to guide them through some difficult years, what an amazing concept. I can’t wait to see the amazing NH men and women that the Value of Sport program turns out in the years to come.”
Mike Ramshaw
“I strongly believe that I am where I am today because of what I learned on the football field and as a youth playing sports. Being a part of team and working toward one common goal has helped prepare me to be a loving husband and father, as well as provide me with a foundation to grow into my career in professional sports. Having a mentor/role model at a young age, instilling a proper work ethic and commitment, is so important and a key to being successful and that’s what Value of Sport will deliver to Manchester’s youth through this program. In high school football I was a lineman and we would live by the three D’s – Dedication, Discipline, and Desire. When I moved from playing football, I took those words and applied them to my personal and professional life. I am forever grateful to my coaches and don’t know if I would be here today, if it weren’t for them.”
