Long Island Football Influencer
[These are the movers and shakers of Long Island Youth Football that we wish to honor. They are Coaches, Recruiters, Parents, NFL/NCAA players, and dedicated people doing things in and outside their communities to elevate the level of football on Long Island. These people do not all have 20 years of experience, fancy alma maters, or superstar backgrounds. Many of them do; but what they all have in common is more important than that: they all put in many hours dedicated to the cause. This is time spent away from their families, sacrificing, working hard to to gain more exposure for players on Long Island, and creating new opportunities for them. Their passion and dedication is fueling the new movement that is getting people on Long Island excited about football. #JoinTheLiyfaMovement]
James Brady is as sizzling of a coach as he was a player. He is the former head coach of Long Island Lutheran High School, and he is the founder of Elite QB and All Long Island Football Academy. He dominated Long Island football as Quarterback at Saint Anthony’s. He is a former Suffolk County All-Star, Daily News Player of the Year, and went on to be a tough NCAA D1 Quarterback. He played at Georgetown and University of New Hampshire before returning to his roots to establish what has become the hottest quarterback training program in the Northeast. Offensively he is a calculated mastermind. As a Quarterback coach we at LIYFA compare him to the west coast QB guru George Whitfield Jr. Many Long Island coaches argue that he’s even better. It’s nearly impossible to get on his schedule for a private session, but if you meet him you will immediately see why he is in such demand. He is young and full of vigor, he is friendly and outgoing, and he is amazing with the young players he works with. He is never at a loss for time to help a young player. From a technical standpoint he breaks down the biomechanics of his athletes like a mad scientist. It is impressive to watch. Brady is very involved in Long Island youth football. He participates in a wide variety of events and seminars, and regularly assists with coaching a number of youth teams across the island.
