Next up on our Coaches Spotlight is Coach Brian Slay who is in his first year as the head Varsity Football Coach at Oakton HS.
Where are you from/did you grow up?
I was born and raised in NOVA. My elementary years were in the Fairfax area where I attended Robinson games as a kid. I eventually graduated from Stone Bridge HS.
What is your background with sports/athletics?
Football!
When/why did you first get into coaching?
I wanted to give back to the game that helped shaped and mold me!
What does it mean to you to coach in this area (especially since you’re from around here)?
There's nothing like giving back to your own community! In order to make a difference in the world, I believe you start by making your own community better.
What is your best piece of advice for young athletes?
Be coachable!
Coach Slay has been incredible with his support of the brand and has bought in from the moment he discovered us on social media. Oakton will be the first football team repping the brand on the back of their football helmets (with the logo at the top of this post) this fall season. I look forward to getting out and supporting the Cougars and wish them and Coach Slay the best of luck this season!
