Area Athletes Honored at 11th Annual ITG Next Football Banquet
University of Alabama head coach Nick Saban was the guest speaker for ITG Next’s 11th Annual South Georgia High School Football Banquet, which was held on Dec. 10, 2018, and saw players, coaches, and fans gather to celebrate the top football players from 33 schools across the region.
Saban talked about the early years of his football career and emphasized the impact coaches have on players and vice versa. He said that we owe the people who have helped us more than a “thank you” and that they deserve an IOU of our very best.
Following Saban’s speech, the Offensive and Defensive Players of the Year from each school were awarded for their performances on the field and the leadership they provided during the season. ITG Next and sponsorship partners then awarded top honors to eight players, one fan, and one coach. A coach in attendance was also named the winner of the Steel’s Jewelry giveaway.
