Born and raised in ensley in one of the only things I had, was athletics. I was that kid. I'll be damned. The petition is very well written and I've contacted a few people as well. It definitely needs to be thoroughly investigated and we'll see where it goes. The light is green Tony Vance, if you have nothing to hide you shouldn't feel any type of way about this. Let's go

We have been with ensley for the last three years this year was the only year we did not play for Ansley for 14 u the season was canceled before we even got to start. Would love to have my money back that I paid and for the raffle tickets also

The parents are being parents. It’s mighty strange that people get removed as coaches once they start questioning the books and the leadership.

Oh Mr. Smithen, surely a man of his stellar reputation would jump at the chance for an operational and financial audit.. After all, transparency must be his middle name… right?

To my understanding, cheerleading has a significant role in handling football financials. The current football president has communicated misinformation to parents and coaches, all while displaying egregious behavior and an abuse of power. Thank you for your time and efforts to investigate this matter. I’d love to see the park continue providing football opportunities for the youth in our community under new leadership.

We will have to travel 120 more miles a week next year to Milton if he is stealing and getting away with it.

Hi Mrs. Wildes, I just wanted to mention that we had a cheer competition this past Sunday and didn’t see you there. I hope your focus wasn’t just on raising money to cover football expenses again. Maybe it’s time to consider an online fundraiser dedicated to football, rather than relying on cheer to continually help balance things out.

Dear Mrs. Wildes, As football season comes to a close, it’s clear that this petition has done little more than show we the parents and former football director, suggesting we were the cause of the program’s struggles before his removal. But I’d like to ask — what’s next? Have you stepped in to help or volunteered to serve on the board? My son loves this park, and so do my husband and I. We see the effort and dedication the board puts in, and that’s why we’ve decided that next year we will step up and help however we can. Let's go 12U next year! So, if you’re not willing to help move things forward, please consider stepping back or leave rather than tearing down those who are trying.
