IN LOVING MEMORY OF AUSTIN BEHRENS

This website is maintained in loving memory of Austin Behrens who passed unexpectedly on June 2nd, 2024.

Welcome everyone to A7 Family Motocross!

A7 began as a dream—my son Austin's dream. Austin always wanted to coach motocross. He was a mentor, a big brother, a friend, and a hero to many of the kids he cared so deeply about. His passion for the sport and his desire to share the knowledge he had gained over the years drove him to give back to as many families as possible. He taught from his heart and cared so very much for all the lives that he was able to touch. The bond he created with his students turned them into family, and those families became his world.

Austin founded A7 Training and Motocross Enhancement with a humble heart, pouring his energy into coaching until we tragically lost him on June 2, 2024. In the wake of that loss, I found myself uncertain about the future. But from that heartbreak, A7 Family Motocross was born—a memorial foundation dedicated to honoring Austin's legacy.

As many of you know, Coach Ray Ray Sullivan has been an important part of A7 for the past year, carrying forward Austin’s vision with dedication and heart. Coach Ray Ray has now moved to North Carolina, where he will continue leading A7 trainings and reaching out to even more kids, helping them grow both on and off the track. We are also excited to announce that Coach Ian Kearon—owner of Elite MX Training and a long-time member of the A7 family—will be stepping up to continue Austin’s legacy as A7 Training’s New Coach. This is more than just a transition; it’s the start of a powerful collaboration between A7 and Elite MX Training. Together, we’ll continue to provide the highest level of coaching, mentorship, and community support, all while keeping Austin’s passion for motocross alive and thriving.

Additionally, we have A7 Motocross, which is a sponsorship program. This new journey holds a very special meaning for our family. Currently, we are honored to sponsor 16 amazing riders, each of whom carries Austin's legacy, hopes, and inspirations with them every day. Austin always gave of his heart, no matter what, and everything we do is in his memory—something we know he would be so very proud of. As part of our commitment, we also extend our support to families who have lost a child, to those raising funds for children in need, and to families caring for children with disabilities or special needs. We are especially excited to begin sponsoring kids who are participating in the Special Olympics, helping them pursue their dreams with the same passion and determination Austin had. We understand how challenging it can be to organize fundraisers and secure sponsorships, and we're here to help in any way we can. Sometimes, working together can make all the difference in the world, and through these efforts, we aim to continue Austin's spirit of generosity while making a positive impact in our community.

We're also proud to introduce the A7 Austin Behrens Memorial Scholarship Program, which funds a variety of scholarships through the proceeds from our online store. Every dollar we receive from donations or sales goes to help families now and in the future. Our goal is to help kids pursue their passions—whether in motocross or other activities—by providing them with scholarship opportunities. Through these efforts, we hope to ensure that they have the support they need for the future ahead!

Finally, we have amazing merchandise available for purchase. Please check out our Austin Behrens Memorial merchandise, school merchandise, and our A7 merchandise. Every purchase helps support our scholarships and honors Austin's legacy.

We cannot thank all of you enough—our friends, supporters, and our motocross family—for the incredible love and support we've received. We are truly blessed to have so many amazing people keeping Austin's legacy going.

God bless you all!

Much love,

Bernadette and Family
