Our Story
Ball Class Young Stars is an organization that provides the community with a complete youth player development program. We shape participants starting from middle school aged and leading to their senior year in high school. Our program uses positive learning from team experiences along with player development sessions to create knowledgeable, skilled, and well-informed student athletes.
Ball Class continues to be the premier player-developing program. We start by providing team flag football teaching the fundamentals of football through this modified playing experience. After experiencing flag football player progress to high school and desire to play for their school’s football team. Ball Class provides player developing skill sessions. These sessions will improve each player’s knowledge and skill set as they age and grow.
Programs We Offer
Hello, My name is Coach Burt. I am helping the next generation by sharing my football playing and coaching experience. Born and raised in Ohio I went to college at West Liberty University. I graduated with a bachelors in graphic design and later continued my education and received a certificate in computer programming.
I was the only two-time West Virginia Conference Defensive Player of the Year in West Liberty football history. I still hold the school’s career records of 47 quarterback sacks and 74.5 tackles-for-loss.
After graduating from West Liberty, I was the 2002 af2 Lineman of the Year after recording a staggering 27.5 sacks for the Cape Fear (N.C.) Wildcats, believed to be a single-season pro football record. I enjoyed a eight-year career in the Arena Football League and hold records for quarterback sacks and forced fumbles. An AFL All-Rookie Team honoree in 2003 and a second-team All-AFL pick in 2005, I led the league in forced fumbles twice and ranked among the AFL sack leaders throughout my career.
After my playing career I have coach over 16 years including college, high school, and I am currently the Defensive Coordinator for the Orlando Predators in National Arena League.
