The Power of Initiatiave
One of the athletes we are honoring this year at our SportsLeader Awards Night on Feb 24th is Joseph Fisher. Joseph is a remarkable
young man who is truly an example of initiative - coming up with an idea on his own, following through and getting it done - all at the age of 12, 13...
Joseph is currently an 8th grader at St Agnes school in Louisville, KY. He played football for the past two seasons for Coach Paul Passafiume, Co-Founder of SportsLeader. He credits the SportsLeader Program as a big part of the success of his team. His team won the Toy Bowl in 2009 and 2010.
Joseph is consistently a 4.0 student, is a member of the Student
Council, and the Kentucky Youth Assembly. Joseph is a volunteer at the Nazareth Home and created a group known as "Fifth Down Equipment Locker" where he collects used football equipment and donates to underprivileged football teams. He looks forward to attending St.
X and playing for the Tigers.
In the past two years he has helped collect over 350 pieces of
football equipment.
