The Anchor Behind the Best Defense | Robert Franzese-Damron Wins 2025/26 NFPL Golden Glove

Every great team needs a foundation.

For Futsal Factory Academy, that foundation was Robert Franzese-Damron.

The FFA captain anchored one of the most dominant defensive seasons the league has seen, leading his side to the best defensive record in the NFPL.

Across 9 matches, FFA conceded just 31 goals, finishing the season with the league’s top marks in:

• total goals allowed
• goals allowed per game
• goal differential

But his impact goes beyond the numbers.

Franzese-Damron’s presence organizes the entire team. Vocal, composed, and consistently positioned, he brings structure to everything in front of him. When called upon, he delivers — a reliable shot-stopper who thrives in big moments.

And when needed, he contributes going forward as well, adding a goal and an assist during the campaign.

Leadership. Consistency. Control.

The backbone of one of the league’s strongest teams, and a deserving winner of the 2025/26 NFPL Golden Glove.
