Michael Chaves to Participate in All-American Bowl in New Orleans

While attending an Offense-Defense Football Camp this summer, Michael Chaves a 14 year old 8th grader of Winthrop, MA, was named an Offense-Defense All-American and invited to participate in the 12th Annual Offense-Defense Bowl Week festivities taking place this December in New Orleans, Louisiana!

Michael who is a running back and defensive back for the WYF Winthrop Vikings A Team, was selected for this honor from an outstanding group of thousands of athletes across the country and played well representing Winthrop, MA, easily validating the Bowl Selection Committee’s choice in tabbing Michael for the All-American tilt.

The Offense-Defense All-American Bowl is the culmination of a week worth of events.  The 12th Annual All-American game is just one of many things that this week encompasses. Also included is an All-Star football game showcasing 88 of the top high school seniors in the country, and has featured current NFL pros such as Heisman Trophy winners Lamar Jackson and Cam Newton, as well as Joe Haden, Dez Bryant, and many others before they were collegiate and later professional stars.

Offense-Defense Sports has been running full-contact football instructional camps for the past 48 years and currently operates in approximately 80 camp locations nationwide all year long.  If you are interested in a camp location near you or for more information, please visit O-D.com.
