Tippett oversees the program as part of the New England Patriots Charitable Foundation's commitment to youth football initiatives. 

"Congratulations to Coach Roosevelt Robinson and the Madison Park Football Program," Tippett said. "The Cardinals impressive 46-6 victory over Charlestown showed discipline and a commitment to excellence on both on both sides of the football. Their 5-0 start to the season is certainly a great accomplishment, and Coach Robinson deserves to be very proud of his players. The Patriots would like to reward Coach Robinson and his team with a donation to the football program and we wish them the best of luck this season."

At the conclusion of the season, one high school coach will be named the New England Patriots High School Coach of the Year and will receive an additional $2,000 contribution toward the school's football program.
