Coach Michael Locksley

As the head coach of The University of Maryland football team, it’s an honor for me to be able to enlist the support and efforts of our athletes towards the initiatives we’re putting forth at TBIAF. 

This partnership with the University of Maryland football team and my family’s charitable organization is a true fusion of passion and legacy.

We hope to leave a lasting impact on our community, while instilling values of hope and change into the next generation of leaders.

STUDENT ATHLETES

MAKING A DIFFERENCE

Here’s just a small glimpse of what we’ve been up to at TBIAF.

Our athletes have been hard at word on the field AND in the community. We’re passionate about making a true  difference in the lives of the youth in the Washington D.C., Maryland, and Virginia metropolitan areas.

What Others Say About TBIAF

The Best is Ahead Foundation is and has become a important platform for the University of Maryland football program to compete in the BIG Ten and continue our winning ways. With today’s landscape in college football, this NIL platform allows us to not only keep our players on the current roster but attract other players to our program. Our football players actually work for their compensation through community outreach and other programs that I've personally witnessed through our Under Armour RISE flag football program. We need to continue to support The Best is Ahead Foundation so we can be proud of the foundation we helped establish and build for today’s Terps!

I support TBIAF as our athletes connect in the community and focuses on gun violence education, mental health awareness, literacy programs and more. NIL is changing the landscape in college football and we need your support and donations. Lets keep moving forward as “The best is ahead” of us Terp Nation.
