Who We Are
From Sydney to the Grey Cup. Twice.
2NINE Academy was founded by John Haggerty, a Sydney-born specialist who earned a Division I scholarship to Western Kentucky, set the single-season punting average record there three years running, and now starts at punter for the Toronto Argonauts. Two-time Grey Cup champion. Two-time CFL East All-Star. The discipline that built that career is the standard every athlete inside this academy is held to.
