About

Hi, my name is Anthony Bell Jr. I’m a 17-year-old student athlete located in Dallas, GA. I was originally born and raised in Boynton Beach, FL (Palm Beach County). My family and I moved to Georgia when I was 12. Academics is very important in my family and I take pride in the work that I put in classroom. I currently attend Paulding County High School in Dallas, GA. I am a proud member of the Beta Club at PCHS where I am able to volunteer and give back to the community. 

Growing up, I was always around family. I spent most days and weekends with my cousins playing football in the backyard of my grandparents house. That is where my love for football began. I started playing organized football when I was 9, for the Boca Jets (Boca Raton, FL). After moving to Georgia, I spent the spring playing for the East Paulding Raiders (7th Grade) team. I eventually moved on to play for Paulding County from there on. I’ve played wide receiver ever since I began playing football. Every coach that I’ve had up to this point has said that I have “pure hands”. I take pride in the work that I put in to stay sharp at this position. 

Though I have been on varsity since 10th grade, my varsity experience and contributions truly began my junior year (2023). At this point, our team was on our third head coach in three years. However, we fought throughout the year and built incredible bonds. I was awarded All Region Honorable Mention for GHSA 6A – Region 5.  I also saw tremendous strides in track and field. I was named team captain and PR’d in just about every track meet this season. 

I come from a family that is rooted in faith and I truly thank God for what he has allowed me to accomplish thus far in my life. We attend LinkedUp Church in Atlanta, Ga where I am a member of the youth ministry, “The Plug”. 

I have many career interests including, business, marketing, graphic design, CIS, and media. My goals are to pursue a degree in either of these fields while also do what I love. I am feeling very confident this year in football, and eager to exercise my growth both on and off the field through athleticism and sportsmanship.

Going into my senior season, I can’t wait to showcase the hard work I have in on and off the field!
