Coach: Dave Abberger
Lead Paster @ Hope Church in Zeeland
3rd year coaching (18th overall)
Coaching, for me, is an incredible platform to teach life through the lens of a very physical game. I believe football can be defined as “constant crisis followed by moments of brief success”—and within that, there are endless lessons about perseverance, teamwork, and resilience. Every day I get the privilege of spending three hours with young men who love life, and that’s an amazing opportunity I don’t take for granted.
