Playing for MVP allowed me to get a feel of the game at a faster pace. They teach advanced coverages, and skills that helped prepare me to play at the college level. We played in top tournaments that allowed me to compete against and cover some of the best wide receivers in the nation.
MVP helped me with my recruiting and exposure a lot. Coach Phil has contacts at many NCAA schools, and he helped get my film to coaches, set up visits for me, and took me on visits. This helped me build relationships with several schools like Eastern Michigan, Robert Morris and to obtain offers such as the university of Pittsburgh.
My favorite memory was when we went to Calgary for the Canadian National Championship and Lechaun Anderson made the game saving interception for us.
For me, playing for MVP allowed me to showcase my talents and hard work , while expanding my game and developing as a player. I was able to achieve my goal of getting a D1 Scholarship so why not put yourself in the best position to go where you want to go?

Playing with MVP played a huge role in my development as a player.
Traveling to the U.S. to compete against top-tier talent pushed me to elevate my game and adapt to a higher level of competition. I also had the chance to play alongside experienced defensive backs from across Ontario and Quebec, which helped me learn new techniques and approaches from different perspectives. On top of that, being trusted to play multiple positions in the secondary gave me valuable experience, improved my versatility, and deepened my understanding of the entire defense.
My favorite memory would definitely be traveling to Atlanta for the Pylon National Championship. Getting the chance to compete at that level was something special. Being part of such a high-caliber event, surrounded by top talent from across the country, is an experience I’ll never forget.
What I’d say to any player considering joining MVP is-go for it. If you’re serious about developing your game, competing against top talent, and gaining real exposure, MVP is where you want to be. The coaches truly care about your growth and are committed to helping you reach your goals. The level of competition challenges you to improve every day, and the chance to travel, visit top college programs, and compete on big stages is an experience you won’t find just anywhere.

Playing with MVP helped me develop tremendously throughout my years with them. They helped create an atmosphere of hard work and compete, the two main things you need to become a great football player. MVP also did a great job prioritizing technical work at your position, as well as teaching the scheme side of football, helping improve your IQ of the game.
MVP helped with my recruiting and exposure due to the tons of camps that we were able to attend. The work of the staff put all the players in the best position possible to get tons of reps in front of some of the top teams in the United States.
One of my favourite memories from my experience with MVP was our trip down to Atlanta for the Pylon Nationals tournament. Being able to go up against that level of competition and being able to have some team success as well was great!
I would say that MVP is the perfect spot for somebody looking to improve their craft in the offseason. Nothing beats getting live reps against others in a competitive setting, MVP 7v7 does just that.

Playing with MVP taught me the side of football I didn’t know, only playing Highschool in Canada. It showed true levels of talent and dedication that all these players had and showed me if I really wanted to make it, you must live to that standard as well. MVP brings players to some of the most elite tournaments you can go too.
There are always people there watching to help get exposure to different colleges. MVP also brought us on visits to a lot of schools and put me in contact with different coaches to help boost my recruitment.
My favourite experience with MVP was going down to LA and showing all the teams that we weren’t just there to be there. We balled out and showed everyone we were a contender, and proved we belonged at that tournament.
I would say if you wanted to join a 7v7 team that goes to the best tournaments, puts you face to face with D1 college coaches, and does everything they can to help their players get recruited at the next level, then MVP is the best place to be.

Playing with MVP helped with my development a lot because it allowed me to go to different tournaments and camps across America and compete with some of the best talent. This allowed me to see where I stood against some of the talent and ultimately boosted my confidence on the field.
MVP was the kick starter to my recruitment. My very first offer from Toledo came at my first tournament with MVP when we went on a visit there before.
My favorite memory with MVP was when we took a far road trip to a tournament in Tennessee. I created great memories and formed relationships with people I am still friends with today.
If you get the opportunity to play with MVP, don’t hesitate to join. You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take, and it will do more good than bad for your career.
