PANTHERFOOTBALLCOACHING STAFF:
Head Coach William Clark
I am the Varsity Football Head Coach at Perth Amboy High School. I have served as an assistant coach for the Panthers from 2003-2012 and 2016-2018. During the 2013 and 2014 seasons, I was an assistant at Eastside High School in Paterson. As an educator and a product of this community, I am honored and proud to service the youth of our city. I was fortunate to attend the University of Virginia as a full grant winner. Moreover, I completed my Teachers' Certification Program at New Jersey City University. I taught 3rd grade Resource at the Edward J. Patten Elementary School from 2015-2019. I also served as a para-professional at the Samuel E. Shull Middle School from 2004-2011.
I am a proud member of the graduating class of 1997 and a strong believer of Panther P.R.I.D.E. As a student-athlete at PAHS, I served as a co-captain during my senior year. I was a member of the All-State Football team and participated in the North - South All-Star Classic. Additionally, throughout my high school career, I was named to the All-Area Football Team twice, the All-County Football Team twice, the All-Red Division Football Team, the All-White Division Football Team twice.
Asst. Head Coach/Offensive Coordinator Sean Atkins
I am the Varsity Football Asst. Head Coach and Offensive Coordinator for the Perth Amboy Football team. I am a proud member of the graduating class of 2006. During my years as a student-athlete, I played linebacker and running-back all four years. I served as a co-captain during my junior and senior years. I was selected to play in the 2006 Snapple Bowl Middlesex vs Union All-Star game. Throughout my high school career, I was named to the All-White Division Football Team twice, All-County Football Team twice, All-Area Football Team once. After high school, I attended Kean University where I was a three-time All-NJAC team and, shortly after, coached at Kean University as the Tight-Ends coach from 2011 until July of 2014. Till this present day, I have been coaching and mentoring young men in this community. I am also the assistant head coach for winter and spring track and the President of the Perth Amboy Red Raiders youth football program. I am also an educator in this wonderful community. I currently work at WC McGinnis school as a paraprofessional. Every year, my goals remain the same and that is, to help our kids reach their full potential on and off the field and help them understand they represent their town, school, families and, more importantly, they represent themselves.
Defensive Coordinator Jeremy Rosa
I am the Defensive Coordinator for the Perth Amboy Football team. I attended PAHS and graduated in 2007. During my years as a student, I played linebacker for the Panthers. From there I went to Rowan University, where I received my Bachelors of Education in 2012. Once I graduated, I knew I wanted to come back to my hometown and give back to our youth. I coached the Red Raiders for the 2012 football season, and from 2013-present I have had the pleasure of coaching at the high school level. Every year my goals remain the same; teach our young men how to carry themselves in their adult life and coach them up to represent themselves and this town on that field with Pride.
