Kacey L. Scott Jr.
I am passionate about coaching and mentoring young athletes. As a youth football coach, my goal is to help players develop strong fundamentals, teamwork, and leadership skills that extend beyond the field. I believe in creating a positive and disciplined environment where athletes grow both physically and mentally. My coaching philosophy centers on hard work, respect, and perseverance—building athletes who are prepared for success in sports and in life.
In addition to coaching, I am a middle school teacher in Leon County, where I help students navigate their academic and personal growth. Teaching and coaching go hand in hand—both require patience, guidance, and a commitment to empowering young minds. Whether in the classroom or on the field, I strive to inspire confidence, resilience, and a strong work ethic in the next generation of leaders
