Before joining DB Select, Elijah had no formal training, just a love for the game and a lot of "backyard football" experience. DB Select has not only helped Elijah develop his technical skills, but it has also molded him into a responsible, confident, and resilient young man. The coaches and mentors, especially Brandyn, Rome, and Thom, have been instrumental in shaping his growth, both on and off the field.

The program's structure, discipline, and focus on both physical and mental preparation have been key to Elijah’s development. Through their guidance, he has gone from playing "backyard football" to being one of the top WR/TEs in the area. One of his most significant accomplishments was being the first Freshman on his Varsity Football team in decades, if ever. He has also earned All-State, All-League, All-Metro, named League MVP, and has won multiple combine camps; feats that would not have ever been possible without the training and support he has received from DB Select.

Since joining the program, Elijah has earned multiple D1 scholarship offers. He is now preparing to graduate high school early and will be heading to college in the spring to pursue his dream of playing in the NFL while earning his MBA. 

DB Select has truly played a pivotal role in Elijah’s journey, and we, as a family, could not be more grateful for them. The lasting impact they have had on his personal growth and football career is priceless.

I cannot say enough good things about the football program at DB Select. My son was involved in this program for 7 years and it truly changed his life. Not only did he learn valuable football skills, but he also learned the importance of hard work, dedication, and goal setting.

The coaches at DB Select are true men of character and served as mentors for my son. They were someone he could look up to and learn from both on and off the field. When my son suffered a life-changing chronic medical condition, the coaches at DB Select were there to support him every step of the way, once he was ready to return. 

Thanks to the encouragement and guidance from the coaches at DB Select, my son worked tirelessly to overcome his medical condition and return to the football field. The program was a big reason he was able to walk again and get back to doing what he loved.

I am forever grateful for the impact that DB Select had on my son's life. I highly recommend this program to any young athlete looking to not only improve their football skills, but also grow as a person. Thank you, DB Select and Coach B for everything you have done for my son.

My son's experience with DB Select has been one of the most important aspects of his growth as a young man and Football player. He has matured in so many aspects of his life and our family has been so blessed and fortunate to witness this transformation from a young high-school kid, to a responsible young man. He is focused on his education, very organized, and has shown great gratitude for the opportunity to be in college and have his education practically paid for/financed through Sacramento State University.

Through DB Select and their excellent coaches, he has learned how to train his mind and body to achieve his goals and aspirations of becoming a student of the game of football and helping others achieve their goals of becoming an elite athlete at a high-level. Phoenix has been with DB Select since the spring of 2019, (approximately 5 years), and has developed into an elite cornerback with excellent coverage skills. He has learned how to read offenses, make adjustments in-game, and know how to use his knowledge, skills and abilities to make the right decisions on the field at a high level. A highlight of achievement Phoenix has experienced is playing high-school football at the varsity level as a freshman and being named a captain since his sophomore year. He was also named a 3-star athlete since his sophomore year and had received numerous offers from several division 1, power 5 programs. DB Select has really been instrumental in my son's growth as a young man and a great football player. I really appreciate that program and wish nothing but the best for them going forward! 🙏 💯 ❤️

My son’s has grown tremendously both on and off the field. The program has instilled in them a strong work ethic, discipline, and a sense of teamwork. They have learned to push theirselves to achieve goals, which has built their confidence.

The coaching and their feedback have been great. The focus on skill development, along with leadership, has helped them not only improve his technical abilities but also become  better teammates and players. 

They have been part of the DB Select program since they were 9 and 10 years old and they are now 14 and 15 years old. During this time, we've seen significant growth.

The coaches at DB Select are incredibly supportive and knowledgeable. They have a unique ability to motivate and inspire their players. Their mentorship have helped my sons understand the importance of family, friendship and brotherhood, which are crucial both in sports and in life.

Since joining DB Select, my sons have improved their ability to understand the game of football, (football IQ), speed, and agility significantly. My older kid has also recently earned a spot on this JV team as a captain and starting on both sides of the ball, which is a testament to his hard work. Additionally, he has developed leadership skills, as he now often helps guide his younger brother during practice and his games.

It's hard to put into words exactly how important & impactful the DB Select program has been for my son & my family as a whole. The family-like culture that was set from the very beginning is the main component of why we are still here and will always be here. 

My son has been apart of this program since age 8. The part that he enjoys most is the 1-on-1 sessions. Being able to be coached in an individual setting to learn the details of the game has been crucial for him.

The program has made my son a smarter, passionate, special player but they've also made him a better person. I'm forever grateful for this program. Thank you DB Select!

One of the best decisions we ever made was to have my son train and play for DB select. 

The training was excellent, but more importantly the brotherhood and family he gained is priceless. He was exposed to very high competition when we travelled to tournaments. As a team, they visited lots of college campuses, which helped him make the right choice where to play at the next level.

He was helped and guided by the coaches while he was being recruited. Football is not only for the sport, but many more life experiences. DB select is the perfect well rounded program.

My son is now playing at the college level. 
For ever thankful to our DB family. 💚
