  Mr. CONNOLLY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Northern 
Virginia Football Hall of Fame (NVFHOF) and to congratulate the 2016 
inductees and scholarship award recipients.
  Participation in organized sports instills many values that will 
serve our youth well throughout life, including sportsmanship, 
teamwork, honesty, and the work ethic developed by striving for success 
and working to achieve a common goal.
  For 26 years, the NVFHOF has recognized the efforts of players, 
coaches, officials, and cheerleaders from local youth and scholastic 
football programs and inducts a few exceptional individuals who have 
made significant contributions to the game. In addition, the NVHOF 
presents several student-athletes with scholarships to help defray the 
cost of college.
