Patriots 11th Year: 2008 marks the 11th straight year that MVP has trained all Patriots Rookies & Free Agents. MVP delivers three-hours of training focused on their role as leaders in preventing violence against women. MVP trainers provide the players with concrete skills to intervene in difficult social situations involving teammates. This is also the sixth year that MVP has provided follow up training to all of the returning players who made the team and completed their rookie season. The Patriots were the first pro sport organization to utilize MVP and this relationship was instrumental in MVP being added to the official Life Skills List of the NFL.
