ITG Next Northeast Florida 2019-20 High School Fall Sports Banquet

On Feb. 2, 2020, ITG Next held its fifth annual Fall Sports Banquet, honoring high school athletes in volleyball, golf, football, bowling, swimming and diving, and cross country. The Omni Hotel in Jacksonville was filled with the athletes and their families, guests, and sponsors. Nearly 200 guests were in attendance, and over 50 athletes were recognized. 

Guest speaker Dr. Lance Synder from the Jacksonville Orthopaedic Institute spoke on perseverance and how having a back-up plan is necessary in case being a professional athlete doesn’t work out. He shared his story growing up as an athlete and the advice his parents gave to him as he went through life in college. 

Along with giving medals to athletes for their athletic achievements, ITG Next and sponsor partners awarded plaques for the following honors: Youth Athlete, Excellence in Character, Male and Female Scholar Athlete,  Adaptive Athlete, and Fall Coach of the Year.

ITG Next gave prizes to those who participated in the social media contest. The first-place winner received Apple AirPods, the second-place winner received a Visa gift card, and the third-place winner received ITG Next apparel. 

ITG Next will be having its Winter Sports Banquet in April.
