We all know that Coach's #1 rule in his gym is to laugh at all of his jokes. But in actuality, Coach Hanson's #1 rule above everything else is to be there for each other - through thick and thin. Right now Coach Hanson and Miss Dana are going to need us to pull together to help them out.

Coach Hanson was admitted to the hospital on Sunday with apparent heart issues and he has been undergoing testing since then. As of this morning we know that Coach has had an apparent stroke in the Pons region of his brain and it is effecting the left side of his body. He's still in the hospital as of 10 August but he may end up being discharged early because of the current situation with COVID in the hospitals.

First, please keep Coach Hanson, Miss Dana, and the whole family in your thoughts and prayers. As of now, we have updates regarding class schedules and coaching on the Facebook page .

However, with Coach being out of service, and with the hospital costs and rehabilitation that is to come, we're pulling together the community to do everything we can to raise money to help Coach and Mama D get through this. We currently have a goal of $5,000 to help cover the costs associated with the medical side of things, but that is subject to change as we learn more. 

Team Florida Northeast is one of the best communities in the state of Florida, with a reputation that proceeds us everywhere in the Southeast region. We are who we are because of the leadership of Coach Joe Hanson!
