About the pass punt and kick contest held there in the early and mid 1970s,
and the boy's and girls club of Valdosta, Georgia. The football and football related
activities were a very big part of the community and from my understanding it
still is! I was a participant in those strength building events. Thanks to a coach
John Bennett, and a young Jack Cook who graduated from Lowndes County High
Scholl right around that time, But the biggest praise goes out to my uncle Clifford
Bradley who was a star football player at Valdosta High School, Clifford Bradley
was a graduate of Valdosta High School in 1972. Thanks to the personal interest in
my playing football that Clifford took in me helped me with discipline for life.
Parnell Bee and myself exploded the interest of midget leage football at the boy's
club during those wonderful times. John Bennett who later became a science
teacher at Valdosta Jr.High had taking an interest in a little boy named Ronald
Walton. Once Walton reached what is now called Valdosta Middle school his
parents moved him to California where he further his love of the game. For some
closer related info: search the archives on Valdosta's rich sports past. Start by
looking up football in the early 1970s up till 1979, you will find stories on these
people and more.
