Your Football Career Isn't Over

The Virginia Storm gives serious athletes in Southside Virginia a real roster, real games, and a real shot to keep playing.

Who We're Looking For

Every spring, the Storm fields one of the most competitive semi-pro rosters in Virginia and the Carolinas. Our locker room has recent high school grads earning their first adult-ball reps, former college athletes staying sharp, and former professional players who still love the game. What they share: they're coachable, they show up, and they compete.

If you're in Danville, Martinsville, Axton, South Boston, Roanoke, Lynchburg, Greensboro, or anywhere within driving distance of Southside Virginia — and you can still play — get on the tryout list.
