“It’s been in the works for quite a few months but we are now proud to launch a new website for our non-profit community football club“, states Paul Stewart, President of the Bell Warriors Football Club.
“Functionality was key. We wanted an easy access portal for everything Warriors. Visitors will quickly see that we have put a great deal of emphasis to ensure supporters and sponsors of our Warriors are given increased visibility and recognition. Our social media feeds have become important communication tools for the club in the past few years and they are all showcased on the home page as is easy access to our Warrior Highlight Videos, scores, standings and scholarship opportunities. Our Events page can be sourced many ways and will highlight our club’s events and those of each individual team for easy reference for our Warrior families and supporters.”
“Warriors can now purchase Warrior Promo Items on line with our convenient on-line order and payment options. Our Awards page will list every award winner for every level back to the early 1970’s. We have a complete summary for each team’s season dating back to 2009 and we will add to this season summary annually to build a reference for alumni to view and enjoy. We have added a News Blog which will contain news articles and press releases. Our Registration Module can be accessed from every page which will give families all the information and documents required to register for any level of football with the Warriors including our Winter Workouts and other special events as they are announced. For those Warrior families looking for convenience, you can now pay for your registration on-line for the first time. We gave this project a great deal of attention to ensure that navigating the site was clear and easy. We are very pleased with the outcome and want to recognize the team at Creative Unity which partnered with us to enable us to bring this new site to our Warriors’ family.” – summarizes Paul Stewart.

“The NCAFA All Star game is a great showcase of amateur football in the Ottawa Valley region. Very few realize that our league is the largest amateur football association in Canada. Ottawa is a hot bed for football and today’s 3 games (Pee Wee ages 13-14; Bantam ages 15-16 and Midget ages 17-19) were a great opportunity for players from around the league to show what they can do. The Western Pee Wee All Stars won 32-0 while the NCAFA West All Stars won 27-14. In total, the Bell Warriors had 12 players represented.” – Paul Stewart, Bell Warriors President
It’s happened again. Two Bell Warriors Bantam players (ages 15-16) have been named NCAFA Players of the Week for Week 5 of the 2013 tackle football season. Dylan Parry has been named NCAFA’s Overall and Offensive Player of the Week on the strength of a jaw-dropping performance which saw Dylan score 3 TD’s. Sheldon Thomas, also of the Bell Warriors, was named NCAFA’s Defensive Player of the Game in Week 5 due to his numerous tackles and interception which was returned for a touchdown in the 57-0 Warrior win Sept 21st against the Kanata Knights. In addition to Dylan and Sheldon’s honours, week two saw Warriors’ Quinn Stewart (QB) and Andrew Beattie (LB) take home similar honours (both from Richmond). In week three, Stittsville’s Kurtis Schaefer also won NCAFA’s Player of the Week.
“I’ve had the privilege to coach Sheldon every second year that he’s been with the Warriors since his first year at tyke (8 to 10 year olds). He’s always has a smile and has always been willing to do the jobs no one else would. He’s a great team player. Dylan Parry is one of the most modest athletes I’ve coached despite the fact that he may be one of the best receivers I’ve ever been involved with and now he has evolved into a jaw-dropping running back. He’s an undeniable talent and like Sheldon, he is a pleasure to coach. They reflect what NCAFA and the Warriors are all about and I couldn’t be happier for either boy for being this week’s NCAFA Player of the Week.” – Paul Stewart, Bell Warriors President.
