2025 Season update

For the 2025 season Brady will be playing with the KC Sports Complex. After the close of the 2024 season, Shock Kidz disbanded with the Shock organization merging with Dynamic. Tyler Stancel who coached Shock Kidz is moving to coach the new Shock Semi-Pro team. The group of kids Brady has played with for the last couple years scattered to other teams for next season. KC has always welcomed Brady and there is a lot of talent within the organization to learn and grow with. He continues to work in the offseason to be ready for the 2025 season and is excited and thankful for this opportunity.

The Goodfellaz

Brady traveled to Elite Sports to help The Goodfellaz D4 in the tournament. The team didn't place where they wanted to but improved throughout the day. This is a great group of people that have helped Brady since he started playing.

Preparing to Take the Field

All of the team preparation comes down to this moment

Injury

Injury

This location is brutal. The field is hard with no grass. We witnessed lots of injuries on the divisional fields and heard of additional injuries on the pro field. Brady injured his shoulder on Friday and was out the rest of the tournament. Blu PB Sports got it on video. He still managed to smile and cheer on his teammates the rest of the weekend.

You can see it in his eyes how much he wanted to be on the field and not in the pit.

There is no grass which makes this location challenging.


When we got home, Brady went to the Doctor and has a partial labrum tear and bone stress in the socket. He needs surgery which we will try to do in the offseason. Starting with physical therapy and a shoulder brace to wear while playing. If his shoulder gets worse, he will have surgery sooner. 


Definitely not the season he wished for.

Waiting for the point to start and full of anticipation of playing with his team.

Injury ended his play for this event. He has a torn labrum in his right shoulder and requires surgery. He is cleared to play the next event with a shoulder brace and is doing physical therapy and peptides to prepare. Brady will see how the next event goes to determine when surgery will be scheduled. This is definitely not the season he wished for.
