Runners, Cleats and Spikes

It is our intention at Yokefellows Athletics to meet the needs of those that come in contact with us, even outside of our main purpose of creating God blessed, positive and lucrative channels in athletics so, youths can become responsible elite athletes. 

For years now I've been driven by my "WHY" a statement that goes like this "to be a supportive resource for charities and missions around the world". 

During my last trip to Jamaica I had the opportunity to live my "WHY" and it felt awesome!!! I had an idea that came to me the summer of 2021,  as I was doing one of our Yokefellows Athletelics community outreach youth time sessions. I would ask parents to donate usable footwear to give back to those youth in  Jamaica in need. I called the footwear donation "Runners, Cleats and Spikes, charity drive"

 

 
It was nice to see how many parents were open to provide me with usable youth footwear but, it was heart breaking to see the amount of kids okay with running in bear feett on hard soil however, Its was heat warming as I presented the shoes to them. The smiles on their faces as they received the shoes is worth a thousand pictures or one million words. 
 
We would love to have "Runners, Cleats and Spikes" move along side with Yokefellows Athletics sprint program as a charity offering and place smiles on kids faces. As we appeal to more professional athletic partnerships and organizations we will keep the conversation going and look to increase the number of footwear give-a-ways.

If you have any usable footwear that a kid would some much appreciate please, contact us or me at the following number here in Canada @ 416 7881920 or Jamaica @ 876 494-4070. If you would rather email us send one to yokefellowsathletics@gmail.com.

Yokefellow our Foundation

                                                              Yokefellows Athletics is built on a solid rock, the rock of Jesus Christ. We follow the set principles of Sabbath (Saturday as our day of rest)  If it was not for God and the sacrifice of Jesus,  Yokefellows Athletics would not exist. It would be impossible for me to do this business or open the doors that I'm about to open if I didn't give back to God through recognition and sacrifice of His command.  The word Yokefellows comes from one of the greatest sacrifices of biblical history, through Paul's journey to Rome and his imprisonment, he gives great honor to those yokefellows (Philippians 4:3) that lifted h...

The Count Down

   Its two weeks before the Sprint Battle pilot program launch in Nigeria, the actual date is June 23, 2023. This is an important date; a lot is riding on this date when it comes to establish momentum for other Sprint Battle competitions to be established. My goal is to have multiple competitions happening at once all over the globe. Its my hope we can properly capture and market the happenings of the event on that date of the 23th to conduct another Sprint Battle in the month of August 2023 as a revenue generator. I already have a few interested parties looking to know more about what Sprint Battle can do for them as a revenue channel. Sprint Battle has the advantage of being new and the benefit of being well known in community happenings. That sounds contradictory but, that is the facts. When you take something old and popular, then revitalize it to fit contemporary society a lot of the hard work has already being established. This is where Sprint Battle finds itself rev...

    A country can be considered like a team when united; a successful country knows how to rally most of its citizens to pull in the same direction just like a football or basketball team. They foresee things in the presence with an eye for future progress. It is said countries that have the highest number of patients have a good grasp on their future and its citizens wealth. You can click here and look at the countries investing in growth through patents: https://www.statista.com/statistics/257152/ranking-of-the-20-countries-with-the-most-patent-grants Patents are also, an ideal indicator on the direction a country is heading in mainly because, it sees itself rising above its current global status. It’s an investment with a yield of 3, 10, 25, 50 or even 100 years with the understanding at the end of the journey of either training, building or research its future will be brighter. These patents would be better off for its people, families, community, and global standing a...
