Paul Reid returned to his Midwestern hometown following five years of service in the US Navy as a field medic stained primary with the Marine Corps. After traveling the world in uniform, he decided to put the characteristics of respect, responsibility, and discipline he had learned in the service to work closer to home by coaching young people in team sports. Although his own high school football career was cut short by a knee injury, he never lost his passion for the game. Thus began a 34-year coaching journey through youth football, Junior Varsity Football, and ultimately 13 years as a head coach of two high school teams. Over this period of time, Coach Reid has coached over 1000 young men, and made a nearly successful run for Michigan State Senate on a “common sense” platform based on duty, responsibility, and putting public service before politics. Coach Reid is married with two teenage children and lives in Midland Michigan, where he works as a Technical Advisor at the Dow Chemical Company Ethocel plant. Now retired from coaching, he spends his Friday nights watching the local kids play the game he loves.
