California Football Academy, Concord

What services does your business offer and what makes your business stand out from the competition?
We take extra care in making sure our families enjoy their experience at CFA. We recognize the players and the coaches for their hard work every season and make education important by recognizing our scholar athletes. We also have other programs, some free, like our Football Combine on 3/7.

Is your location strictly for adults, or can kids participate as well?
Age 4-14

What was the inspiration to start or run this business?
My husband and I have 6 children and my husband is in law enforcement. Sports has always been a wonderful way to keep our children active and away from negative influence. My husband coached youth and high school football, and there was a need in our city of Oakley for a youth football program.

What do you love most about your job?
I love our families - the players, the coaches, and everyone involved in making the program even better season after season. It's wonderful seeing the field of colorful jerseys and hearing those familiar sounds of whistles and laughter. It's really a wonderful feeling!
