Scunthorpe Alphas

STAIT is proud to support the Scunthorpe Alphas, an American football team that holds a special place in the hearts of its community and embodies the values of hard work, discipline, and camaraderie.

As an organisation with strong principles, STAIT recognises the transformative impact the sport can have on individuals, such as co-founder Shaun Sargent, who credits his own experience with the Scunthorpe Steelers for pulling him out of a dark time in his life, giving him a home surrounded by strong men, after the death of his mother.



Continuing the tradition of the Scunthorpe Steelers, The Alphas not only provide an outlet for athletic excellence but also fostering lasting friendships and inspiring pride in the community of Scunthorpe.

 

Along with supporting the 1st team, who are growing from strength to strength, equally as important is to be able to support the coaching of 3 youth teams, giving the youth of the area something to participate in, and excel at. Whilst in its infancy, the Alpha’s can boast a proven track record with the youth teams, with members being selected to play for country, and also, being recognised and drafted into the big league, NFL training school.



The youth scheme is a huge part of the Alpha’s success, and something STAIT is committed to developing further.



Through unwavering support and shared values, STAIT and the Scunthorpe Alphas work together to build a brighter future for the town, its people and its youth, with the conviction that success is not just a possibility, but inevitable.
