Bancroft football team off to flying start


The Bancroft Taxi T-Hawks football team, for youth in the Grade 6 to 8 age range, played their first game of the season on Friday night in Belleville against the newest addition to the Belleville Minor Football League, the Brighton Devils. All the players were very nervous playing their first game and testing their skills against an unknown opponent.
The Devils kicked off to us to start the game and we immediately marched down the field to score a touchdown – a great start for our team, which includes over 20 new players. After we kicked off to the Devils, our defence drove them back into their own end zone for a safety touch, giving us an additional two points.
The game continued to be all T-Hawks. Six touchdowns, a safety, and five extra points secured a richly deserved 43-6 victory. Nine different players got into the scoring for the T-Hawks: Gage Green, Ethan Phillips, Marcus Flury, Dray Hopkins, Eric Hall, Thomas Switzer, Angus Woodcock, Rowan Ives, and McKyla Woodcox. Our defence also played extremely well, allowing the Devils only one breakaway touchdown. Zeb Robinson, Dray Hopkins, Sam Rumleski. Desi Davies, Brandon Marois, and Andrew Miller all played well, alongside our Player of the Game, Dakota L'Esperance.
We would like to thank Bancroft Taxi, Freymond Lumber and Musclow Bus Lines for their support. Our next game is in Belleville on Thursday at 7:30, and we have our first home game May 19 at NHHS at 6:30 p.m. See you there.
