NTF Players Thoughts

Rodney Hunter - (Mariner, 2015)

"Peach Jam was an amazing experience. We got to play against the best teams in the country in front of some of the top college coaches in the country. Playing with my NTF family made the experience even better. We coming back even harder next year to take that trophy home!"


Kevarrius Hayes - (Suwannee Live Oak, 2015)

"Peach Jam was a great experience for me. It made me realize that at the level of competition we are playing at, there are certain parts of my game that I need to work on and improve if I want to continue to get better. It's great to be on a team of friends who treat you like family because they always make the experience more enjoyable."

Wyatt Walker - (Providence. 2015)

"Many tournaments claim to have the best competition and exposure to the top NCAA coaches. The Peach Jam actually delivered both! Every game was a battle and ecery sideline was loaded with the top coaches in the game. The atmosphere was incredible and they took care of us like we were professionals. NTF will be back! I love this group of guys! Family!"
