Value of Education
Grades come first. Student athletics is based on maintaining good grades to be eligible for team sports. DB Guru JR encourages student athletes to study hard in school and helps them undertand how a college education is so very important to their future.
Coach Tony Perry spent more than 30 years helping young athletes find their way...
We each have our own Coach Tony Perry Story…
“He took them on official visits, bought them lunch when they didn’t have money, gave them every ounce of love and energy he had… He just cared.”
“Perry was like an uncle to countless kids growing up in Fresno. His goal was to help young athletes further their careers, using his connections with college coaches. Fresno, home to gang violence, has one of the highest crime rates in the nation, and Perry wanted to help keep kids off the street.”
The DB Guru JR program is 100% volunteer run by Coach Ware, Coach Calvin & valuable supporting staff. These community leaders are dedicated in continuing the tradition from what they learned from Coach Tony Perry. DB Guru JR continues their success to get young kids to focus on after school sports and pave the way toward scholarships and brighter futures with college education.
With your Help, DB Guru JR can Mentor more kids!

“It is important for a productive society to give back to our young aspiring youths to continue the cycle of prosperity. It has been a pleasure working with Coach Ware of DB Guru JR in assisting in guiding his path of helping young student athletes reach their full potential”
