<p>With all the amazing football teams in the state of Florida, perhaps the team that captured the headline in the off-season is Orlando Ther First Academy.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>What head coach <strong>Jeff Conaway </strong>and his staff have done to lay a solid foundation is indeed something special as the Royals are making a push to make plenty of noise this season as well as into the future and attempt to dent a classification that Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna has dominated for much of the decade.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Speaking of the coaching staff, Conaway has surrounded himself with a full staff and some impressive assistants – such as Steve<strong> Moffett </strong>(Assistant Head Coach, Offensive Coordinator, QB Coach), <strong>Chris Bryant </strong>(WR Coach, Special Teams), <strong>Chris Miller </strong>(OL/RB), <strong>Chad Mavety </strong>(OL), <strong>Mike Hebert </strong>(RB/TE),<strong> Jacob Gill </strong>(Defensive Coordinator),<strong> Corey Broomfield </strong>(Assistant Head Coach/Defensive Backs),<strong> Chris Mitchell </strong>(Safeties), <strong>Jordan Richards </strong>(OLB),<strong> Lee Bennett </strong>(ILB) and defensive line coach <strong>Nate St. Clair.</strong></p>

<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Coming off a 6-4 season, this program will hit the ground with some talented faces this season – as powers Orlando Edgewater, Sanford Seminole, and Clearwater Calvary Christian to name a few.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>With some impressive football talent on board, the senior class (2025) certainly had experience and leadership.</p>
