Danny Harris began his career ten years ago with the East Side Eagles of the Manitoba Major Football League (MMFL). At 5ā7, Danny has always been undersized and underrated so he found himself always playing defensive back. Harris started and won an Adams championship in 2009, in his third year of football. He suited up for U16 East and Black, went to the finals with black but lost.
Currently, Danny is a member of the Kildonan East Reivers in the Winnipeg High School Football League (WHSFL). Last year, in Dannyās junior campaign the Reivers didnāt have a quarterback going into the season so Danny stepped up to help his team. Harris earned the coaches offence award starting at quarterback and defensive back. Going into his final year, Danny would like to play quarterback and defensive back again.
āIāve done lots more QB training this offseason to be the best I can be I really want to play DB at the next level wherever that isā.
As far as recruitment goes Danny hasnāt talked to any CIS schools yet, only Canadian Junior Football League teams like the Winnipeg Rifles and Victoria Raiders.
āI really want to play DB at the next level wherever that is I’ve been talking to some junior teams but hopefully looking for CIS or Dvision 2ā.
There wasnāt any specific moment highlighted from last season, Danny chose being a leader as his highlight.
āMy highlight of last season would be being more of a leader and communicated with my teammates also using my football skills to full potential,ā explained Harris.
The most influential people in Dannyās life have been his parents. Dannyās parents have let him go to any training and camps to make him a better player, āthey are the best thingā.
In football, Dannyās coach Jason Hawkins has been the most influential towards him.
āIn my life football related would have to be my head coach Jason Hawkins, he really tries to be 1 on 1 with his players on and off the field not only encourages us to be a better player but all around a better person in lifeā.
At this moment Dannyās plans are to take football as far as he can. Heās still undecided on what he would like to take in university, but heās thinking he would like to become a gym teacher or go to law school.
Dannyās offseason training regimen consists of Recruit Ready summer, winter and 7v 7 programs. With Kildonan Athletics Club Danny lifts weights and does cardio, helping with speed agility. Danny is working towards being faster, stronger and better than ever for next year.
In conclusion Danny said, āI’m a hard worker, football is my passion I donāt know what I would be doing without itā.
