Tom Brady left the NFL field with numerous records to his name and etched his name in the history books as one of the greatest NFL players ever. With such an enormous resume, it is hard to impress him, let alone excite him, to make him proud and post an appreciation message. But Maya Brady just did it.

Since retiring last year, Tom Brady has been dedicating more time to his immediate family, including his children, as well as his extended relatives. He is not just playing the role of a father but a supportive uncle as well. Just a few days ago, he sent a congratulatory message to his niece, Maya Brady, on social media. This week, he has another message for her about her splendid performance.

The post in reference is from the UCLA Bruins softball team congratulating Tom Brady’s niece, Maya Brady. The caption for the post read, “𝗥𝗲𝘄𝗿𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗯𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀 ✍️ @mayabrady_ continues to cement her status as an all-time UCLA great, moving into sole possession of third place on the Bruins’ career home runs list (62).”

“Playing for My Dream”: Tom Brady’s Athlete Niece Maya Reveals 3 Influential Reasons for Choosing UCLA

The moment in reference happened during the series finale softball game between the Huskies (No.8 Washington) and the Bruins, which UCLA won by 6-0. En route to the win, Maya Brady contributed with 2 home runs while also pushing herself to the third position on the all-time list of career home runs for Bruins, a list led by Stacey Nuveman. Hence, Tom Brady has every reason to be proud of her niece’s performance and achievement.

Athletic blood in Tom Brady’s family makes him proud

There is no doubt that athletic abilities run in the blood of the Brady family. While Tom Brady has numerous achievements on the football field, his sister and Maya’s mother were no less of an athlete. She was a pitcher for Fresno State and led her team to two women’s College World Series appearances. Maya is also the niece of former MLB player Kevin Youkills. Probably this is why Maya’s performance has been so stellar at such a young age.

Tom Brady is often seen in the audience during UCLA’s matches. A couple of weeks ago, Tom Brady posted a story on his Instagram account for his niece with the message, “So proud of you.” But Tom’s appreciation for Maya doesn’t stop there. Despite the athletic achievements in the bloodline, Tom Brady feels that Maya is the most athletic person in the family, as told to the Boston Globe in 2019.
