After 14 seasons, 3 Division Championships, 6 Championship Game appearances, and 4 League Championships, Madden’s FNL career has officially come to an end.
FNL was one of the things that brought Madden the most joy throughout his childhood. He started playing in kindergarten, and now, as he finishes 8th grade, that chapter has come to a close. Other than the season he played Pop Warner, he never missed a season. It was something he always looked forward to and truly loved being a part of.
Madden was incredibly passionate about the game. It brought him so much happiness, excitement, and yes, sometimes a few tears when things didn’t go the way he had hoped. His love for the game was evident every time he stepped onto the field.
FNL was also a special bonding experience for Jake and Madden. Jake coached him in 10 of those 14 seasons, and so much of Madden’s success and love for the game can be credited to having his dad leading the way. Together, they created memories that will last a lifetime.
Over the years, we played alongside so many great boys, worked with several amazing assistant coaches, and met countless wonderful families who became part of our journey. Looking back, there is truly no other way I would have rather spent my Friday nights all those years.
Thank you, FNL, for the memories, friendships, lessons, and unforgettable moments. What a ride it has been. 🏈❤️
