Jacob Groshek Leads Newton Flag Football Program

NEWTON, MA — Without community leaders, Newton, MA wouldn’t hum along nearly as smoothly as it does. We’d miss their contributions in big and small ways.

Patch has partnered with T-Mobile to recognize these often unsung community leaders and celebrate their contributions.

This submission comes from Jacob Groshek, a Newton, MA reader who nominated Jacob Groshek.

How do you know the community leader?

Leads the Newton NFL Flag Football program for thousands of players and their families.

Why do you believe the community leader should be recognized or honored?

I have created a safe, fun, competitive experience for thousands of players and their families, and have created a standalone girls-only program to serve our community.

What's one thing you want everyone to know about the community hero?

Works tirelessly, gives back via scholarships and other opportunities to train and employ a staff of dozens of local teens.

This content is brought to our community in partnership with T-Mobile.
