Tracker Robinson played faithfully on the Drumheller Titans’ Football team for five years, but will now trade his jersey in to play for Canada Prep Academy’s Raiders.
A Drumheller Titan has been recruited into a noteworthy football program.
Tracker Robinson, 16, will be attending Canada Prep Academy in St. Catharines, Ontario for his last year in high school.
“I’m expecting this experience to make me a better player, person, and student. I’m nervous since I’m leaving family and friends behind, but it’s what’s best for me. Canada Prep Academy is my best opportunity to go pro,” Robinson explains.
In order for their students to reach full potential and propel their football careers beyond the high school level, the academy aims for excellence in both athletics and academics.
While attending the academy, Robinson will have the convenience to learn both Canadian and American football, giving him the edge he needs to play in either university league.
The academy’s unique practice aims ultimately for their students to be successful while they pursue a university football career.
Their mission statement states, “Canada Prep Academy provides a setting that closely resembles that of a university, ensuring that our students are prepared to balance the lifestyle of a student-athlete at the next level, whether that is NCAA or CIS. Furthermore, we strive to prepare our student-athletes to not only get into university, but to have the skills necessary to balance sport and academics.”
Robinson will be flying to Ontario August 16, in time for the team’s first practice on August 18.
