The Rize 2026: A National Recruiting Stage Hits New Jersey
Aaron Ingram and Benjamin J. Carey lead a raw recruiting Q&A for serious football families.
A national football stage.
Elite middle school talent.
Serious families.
Real recruiting conversation.
On June 27, and bring The Rize 2026 to New Jersey, one of the premier invite-only youth football events in the country.
The field will be loaded with top athletes from across the region and beyond. The media will be there. The evaluators will be there. The next wave of football talent will be there.
And during the event, parents and athletes will get something most camps never deliver:
Real answers.
The featured Recruiting Q&A will be led by two respected voices from different sides of the football world:
Aaron Ingram
Chief of Staff & General Manager of Football
McNeese State University
Benjamin J. Carey
Creator of Byronic Heroes
President & Co-Founder, Long Island Elite National Team
Ingram brings the perspective of a current Division I football executive. Carey brings the perspective of a nationally connected program leader, media voice, father, coach, and mentor who has lived the recruiting process from youth football to the SEC.
Together, they will give families a rare look inside the modern football landscape: what matters, what is noise, what parents need to understand, and what serious athletes must start building now.
This is not a generic recruiting talk.
This is raw. Real. Unfiltered.
The Rize 2026 is where the next generation gets evaluated, educated, and exposed to the people shaping the future of football.
June 27. New Jersey.
The standard rises.
