Off-Season Taking Off

The Rebels have had an extremely successful off-season thus far.  Attendance is at an all time high.

 

“We have had between 19 to 25 players working out everyday this month.  I am extremely pleased with the level of commitment these players have shown to their teammates and the football program.”

 

Coach Tom Pagliaro

 

 

Score One for the N.Y.A.

N.Y.A. Baseball had tremendous success at tryouts on Saturday, Feb. 16th at Ridgewood H.S. These tryouts also generated prospective players for The N.Y.A. Football League, as well.

 

“We were able to register over 20 new participants for the league; I’d say it was a pretty successful day.  I had a chance to meet some really great parents and some very special kids.”

 

League President Tom Pagliaro
