I did hear that Ironton was signed as a team we play. I know we used to play them back in the 80's. They always would set the pace for the rest of the season. I do know the last 2yrs Haywood has made a big effort to stick his hands in on the youth football program. From the 3rd to the 8th these kids and coaches are running and practicing everything that the high school is doing. I would say this will make a big differance in them when they make it to the high school level. If everything work out the incoming kids will already have a heads up and will be able to fall right in place. Coach Haywood also dont let just anyone coach the youth groups anymore, I think 90% of them are x-players witch is a big help. I also know back when these 3rd & 4th teams and the 5th & 6th teams played in the county touraments they would end up with 1st, 2nd, 3rd place. Tough group of kids coming along. In these groups they have 4 team each, so that give the 8th grade and the high school 4 QB, 4RB, 4 HB, 4 of every position to look at and to choose from. Belfry is going to get nothing but get better every year.
