With an extremely heavy heart, we send our deepest condolences to the Rodberg family. The Northern Vortex has lost one of our own. 💔
Coach Johnny meant so much to so many—his impact on this program, our athletes, and our entire community is something that will live on forever. There are no words to truly express how much he will be missed, but we promise this: we will honor him, and we will keep his name alive within this program.
Northern Vortex and Elite Sports Complex are coming together to support the Rodberg family through a fundraiser. Starting Friday the 27th, we will be selling Coach Johnny t-shirts.
Every dollar spent will go directly to the Rodberg family.
If you were ever coached by Coach Johnny, your shirt has already been taken care of—just come in and pick it up at Elite Sports Complex. ❤️
We will also be running a pickleball event for Johnny's family the following Wednesday, April 1—April Fool's Day—perfect for Johnny!
Let’s come together the way he always brought us together. Let’s show up, support, and take care of one another.
Forever in our hearts. Forever Vortex. 🖤
