In January 2010, four gentlemen decided to start an organization that would benefit the Spencerport community and be better aligned with the goals of the Spencerport School District’s football and cheerleading programs. Never could they have dreamed or expected for what took place on Sunday, October 28. In just their third season, all three tackle football teams won the Championship, finishing a combined 24-1 for the season.
The ‘C’ Team (ages 7-9) led by Head Coach Joe Burns beat Webster 21-0 in the first game played on October 28. In the second contest, the ‘B’ Team (ages 9-11) led by Head Coach Bill Guzik, beat a tough Webster team 6-0. Not to be outdone by their younger counterparts, the ‘A’ Team (ages 11-13) led by Head Coach Michael Indelicato, came from behind in the second half to beat Victor 30-18 in the wildest of the three games.
Founders Michael Indelicato, Bill Guzik, Anthony DiNitto and Ken Laubacher could only sit back and smile from ear-to-ear with the realization of what had been accomplished in such a short amount of time. In addition to the success in football, the Jr. Rangers Cheerleading Squads have won several competitions over the past three seasons.
The Spencerport Jr. Rangers are a member of the American Youth Football & Cheerleading League (www.ayfcl.org). Registration for both football and cheerleading opens online at www.spencerportjrrangers.org to Spencerport School District residents on Thursday, November 1.
‘A’ Football (ages 11-13).
