Player Opportunites

LIFE AFTER FOOTBALL

We have developed a great partnership with Northshore Technical Community College. Our athletes receive the opportunity to transition to life after football.

In my third year with the Cardinals and I enrolled for my first semester at Northshore Tech. Because of this partnership, I can tell my kids that their father has a career and not just a server at a restaurant. I am glad to have this opportunity.
