A SHARED PASSION

“We have been proud sponsors of GNYFF for many years,” said Jeff Jones, President of Triple J Enterprises, Inc. “we share a common belief – that is each of us can make a difference where we live and how we live. GNYFF and its members have a strong desire and special attention and respect for youth football and to do its best to help build up our kids, parents, coaches and the community at large. This donation is to help ease their logistical burdens so they can focus, more importantly, on the well being of the organization as a whole.”

Ivan Shiroma, President of GNYFF added, “It is critical for us to have the support of the community and sponsors like Triple J Ford help us to continue to provide a safe and positive environment for youth to learn essential life skills like dedication, teamwork and sportsmanship, and to become better individuals both on and off the field. We have over 1,000 players and 200 plus cheerleaders in our now 36-team league so it is crucial to have the support of the community at large.”
