Think of Volunteer as a Coach or Manager

February 25, 2019/in Headlines /by Paul Stewart

Think of joining a NCAFA Non-Contact football program (Girl’s Touch or Co-Ed Flag) as a coach or manager.  Both are finished by the end of June.  You will help kids have a great experience and you will get more back than you give.  Check out our programs at www.ncafa.ca pr email info@bellwarriors.ca for details.

Jack Rabb of Richmond stepped up to coach our Flag Football program and had a ball. Why don’t you give it a go too?

2017 Jim Wagdin Scholarship Winners Announced!

September 6, 2017/in Headlines /by Paul Stewart

It’s official – the 2017 Jim Wagdin Bell Warriors Scholarship winners have been announced and this year’s winners are Jack Rabb of Richmond and Stefano Napolitano of Stittsville!
 
Jack Rabb said of his experience with the Warriors, “I played football with the Bell Warriors for 6 years, from Mosquito to Bantam. I am extremely grateful for the values this organization has instilled in me as a person, and for the fundamentals I developed as a player. In being given so many opportunities to lead my teammates, try new positions, and be taught advanced concepts, I was incredibly enriched. The leadership skills I gained spilled over into my school life, where I became the co-president of my school and organized a camp dedicated to teaching my peers the same leadership skills I had been taught by my coaches. The athletic skills I honed allowed me to sign on to Queen’s to continue my football career. I am very appreciative of the Warriors for encouraging both of these facets of my life to improve.”
 
Jack is currently in his second year at Queens University where he is a member of the Gaels football club.  Since graduating from the Warriors organization, Jack has spent time volunteering with Motionball, a charity that hosts Marathons of Sport.  These events group together student athletes and Special Olympic athletes for a day dedicated to competing in a variety of sports, with funds raised going towards supporting Canada’s Special Athletes.  Further, Jack participated in Gaels Care, a community outreach initiative that consisted of spending time talking to and playing sports with children from low-income neighborhoods.   Most recently, Jack volunteered assisting with the Warriors Winter Workouts and the Warrior’s newly-revived flag football program.  CONGRATS JACK!!!

Stefano Napolitano says of his time with the Warriors, “I attribute much of this success to the Bell Warriors Football Club as I learned many, many skills and characteristic in my 7 years there which has helped me along every step of the way.  Each and every year I seem to notice more and more that all of those years were so much more than just football.  Football was a big part of it, and I really do miss those days, but the intangibles that we were taught every single day at practice and at games are simply invaluable.  As I think about these intangibles, 3 main things stick out to me.  Those 3 things are teamwork, discipline and perseverance.  I have tried to keep and improve on these qualities in my time at Carleton, and I will never stop to improve them as they can be applied to almost everything in life.  I am so thankful for the little things I learned from 2005-2011 with the Warriors.”
 
Stefano’s list of community service is impressive to say the very least and he is going into his fifth and final year of eligibility with the Carleton Ravens.  He is also unique in that he has been a team captain in all five years of with the Ravens.  Stef is trying to use these qualities that I have acquired with the Warriors and from other chapters of his life to help lead his team to a conference and national championship this year.   CONGRATS STEFANO!!!

10 Years but worth the wait – FLAG IS BACK!

May 27, 2017/in Headlines /by Paul Stewart

It’s been over a decade since the Warriors hosted their successful Spring Flag Football Program but it’s back and with great enthusiasm! “I wouldn’t have been involved with the club if it wasn’t for flag nor would my past DC Terry Schaefer or current OC  and Club VP Tim Sheahan.  It was a very important program to get youth introduced into our great sport back then.  Unfortunately over time, we lost some key volunteers and it fell by the wayside”, states Paul Stewart, Warriors President
 
This past winter Charlie Keenan reached out to the Warriors.  Charlie is attending Queens University but had some time that he wanted to dedicate to giving back to his old club.  Charlie not only started playing football with our flag program but he became one of the very best players our club had at the time.  “Charlie was athletic, ultra-intelligent and driven”, states Stewart.  “I had the fortune to coach Charlie and when he chose to reach out to help our club, I was determined to find him a job.  Together we soon landed on Charlie being an instrumental volunteer to re-introduce our Spring Flag Football Program.”
 
The league started Saturday morning and fielded 7 full teams ages 7-13 with over 60 players.   Another key component of the re-launch was the use of Warriors alumni as coaches and referees for the program “We couldn’t be happier with the re-launch.   We volunteer to set an example for our youth and to see Charlie and so many Warriors alumni return to do the same is simply amazing”, concludes Stewart.

Tyke players Avery Stuart (left) and Louis Turpin are reunited week 1 of the Warriors 2017 Spring Flag Football Program. They were buds last year and will be leaders on our Tyke Tackle Football team this year.

Wariors Alumni Jack Rabb is one many ex-Warriors that have returned to coach our program. Gotta luv the way our Warriors are giving back! Class Act Jack!

THANKS CHARLIE KEENAN for taking on the task and making our re-launch of our Spring Flag Football Program a resounding success!

17, 18, 19 and 20th Warriors Commit!!!

February 24, 2016/in Headlines /by Paul Stewart

The Warriors are proud to announce that the 17th, 18th, 19th and now 20th Warrior alumni from recent years have just committed to play football at the next level!

#17    Brad Cowan

Brad Cowan2

“Brad Cowan was a standout Warrior player for years winning Outstanding Linebacker at Pee Wee and Most Improved Player his first year of Bantam.  An unfortunate ankle injury prohibited him from playing for most of his last year as a Warrior.  One thing I always appreciated in my years coaching Brad was that he had great football instincts and was very athletic and agile for such a big young man.  It was a shame he missed out on most of his final Bantam year but he worked hard in the off-season to be ready for his 1st year at Midget.  He made the most of his opportunity ultimately winning the Rookie of the Year with our sister club the Bel-Air Norsmen and the NCAFA League Championship while catching the eye of CIS recruiters.  The Warriors are proud of Brad and know he’ll thrive at Laurier University as a Golden Hawk.”

“Hybrid” defender Brad Cowan a welcome addition to the Laurier linebacking corps.

 

#18    Jack Rabb

Jack Rabb collage

Jack Rabb of Richmond has recently committed to play football at the next level with the  University of Queen’s Gaels.  Jack is a gifted student from South Carleton who has been awarded the Silver Medal which signifies an average of 90% or over.  It’s his prowess on the gridiron, however, which has earned him a coveted spot with the Gaels of Kingston.  Jack is another product of the Bell Warriors Football Club.  He started playing football 6 years ago at the age of 12 with the Warriors and soon became a reliable receiver, QB, punter and kicker.  “Jack was a great young man to coach. He is an immensely positive and cerebral player that competes hard and has a knack of making plays under pressure.  At 6’ 4” tall, Jack is a hard target to miss on routes.  He also has a CIS level leg already and it wouldn’t surprise me if he becomes a standout punter for the Gaels.  Playing football at the next level is a big opportunity for a young student athlete.  Jack is the 18th Warrior alumni to commit to play NCAA or CIS football in the past few years.  We’re proud that so many of our players have enjoyed success playing football and are being given an opportunity to continue playing the sport they love while getting a post-secondary education.”

#19    Ross Polito

Ross Polito of Stittsville has just committed to join the York University Lions.  Ross was a major award winner at every level with the Warriors and capped his time with the club winning the inaugural Bantam Leadership Award in his last Warrior season.  At the Midget level (ages 17-19), the Warriors join with the neighbouring Bel-Air Club to field the Bel-Air Norsemen.  Ross played for the Norsemen this past year and was an important part of their NCAFA Championship team.  “I’ve known Ross for a long time and have had the pleasure of coaching him at all 4 Warrior age groups.  What he didn’t have in size when he started with us, he more than made up for with his courage, dedication, competitiveness and smarts.  You always knew you could trust him in pressure situations to make a play and he was like a coach on the field.  I couldn’t be happier for him to be able to play at the next level”  Ross makes the 19th commit from recent years from the Warriors.  He joins Jack Rabb of Richmond (Queens) and Brad Cowan of Asthon (Laurier) who were the 17th and 18th commits.

#20   Quinn Stewart

Quinn Stewart of Richmond has made the decision to commit to the St FX X-Men of Antigonish, Nova Scotia.   Quinn played 9 years with the Warriors and was a 5 time major award winner including a 3 time MVP.  The last two years he was with the Norsemen.  He finished his 11th year of football this year by winning the NCAFA Midget Championship with his Norsemen teammates Jack, Brad and Ross.  Quinn’s final NCAFA season was capped by being named to the NCAFA All-Star team (for the third time), the Norsemen’s MVP Award and NCAFA Midget Most Outstanding Offensive Player Award.  Tim Sheahan, Warriors VP who coached Quinn for years, states “Quinn Stewart was a decorated Bell Warrior, winning Defensive and Offensive Player of-the-year honours as well as MVP honours at several levels. He was one of only a small handful of players that played 9 years of football for our club. He was talented for sure; as a defensive player in his early years , he was responsible to his position and an outstanding form tackler. He excelled as an offensive player because of his “smarts “ for the game. Quinn has a strong arm and deceptive, powerful speed, which made him the obvious choice as our field leader at QB.  As Quinn matured as a player, his abilities grew, but his most outstanding quality is that of team leader.  His team mates followed his lead as he competed in practice every single night, and his polished skills allowed him to succeed on the field on game days.  Our club has graduated many players on to the CIS , but none with the number of wins that Quinn was part of in his 9 years.”

YES! YES! YES! NORSEMEN Win it All!!!!

October 31, 2015/in Headlines /by Paul Stewart

The Bel-Air Norsemen are the 2015 NCAFA Midget Champions!!!

The Championship was a rematch to avenge the two earlier games that the Norsemen had lost against the Nepean Eagles during the regular season.  Although standout receivers Dilan Parry and Malcolm Turgeon (both Warrior alumni) were unable to play, the Norsemen came committed and were rewarded with an impressive 11-6 win.
 
The Norsemen controlled the ball throughout the first half but weren’t able to finish until midway through the 2nd quarter on a one yard plunge by Norsemen Captain and QB Quinn Stewart (Warriors alumni) to put the Norsemen up 7-0.  Quinn Stewart went down with an injury soon after the score, and although he was able to stay in the game as a wide receiver, back-up QB Jack Rabb (also a Warrior alumni) had to take the majority of the snaps for the rest of the game.
 
In the third quarter, wide receiver and place kicker Tyler Gray added insurance with a missed field goal for a point and another successful field goal in the fourth to put the Norsemen up 11-0.  The Eagles were able to get 1 TD in the final minutes of the game on a long bomb but it wasn’t enough against the stifling Norsemen team.  Head Coach Tony Violante said after the game that, “We came to conquer and we dominated in every facet of the game.”

Get Ready to Cheer – It’s CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK!

October 29, 2015/in Headlines /by Paul Stewart

This is not a time to sit back Warriors’ supporters.  This is a time to get bundled up.  It’s time to put on all of your Warrior Wear and it’s time to cheer as hard as you can for our Warriors….it’s CHAMPIONSHIP WEEK!
 
Our Tykes and Mosquito clubs didn’t make it to the finals but we have to start off by congratulating head coaches Brian Patterson (Tyke) and Richard Baylin (Mosquito) for instilling a love for our great sport and building the foundation for the continued growth of our Club.  We can’t thank you and your volunteers enough! THANK YOU!!!
 
At the Midget level (17-19 year olds), the Warriors partner with our neighbours at Bel-Air to field the Bel-Air Norsemen.  The Norsemen are filled with Warrior alumni and take the field against the Nepean Eagles (which is a partnership between the Eagles and Myers Riders) Friday night at 8:15 p.m. at the Nepean Sportsplex.  This will be a match-up that will showcase the best recruits and players from the Ottawa region.  You won’t want to miss this one!

norsemen vs eaglesThe Warriors Bantams (15-16 year olds) take the field on Halloween to face the West Carleton Wolverines.  The Wolverines are a rugged, hard-hitting club so this will be a battle until the final whistle.  Our Warriors will be looking to build on last weekend’s dominant win over the Bengals and carry their momentum to best the Wolverines who won in a lop-sided battle earlier this year. Best of luck Warriors!

wrs vs WC2Our final Warrior team in Championship Week is our Pee Wee team led by head coach Michael Polito.  Mike’s Pee Wees are a well-balanced, skilled team that will need to bring all they have to come home with a victory over the undefeated Cumberland Panthers.  We know this will be a showcase game for our league that, regardless of the outcome, will be a magnificent game. Go get ’em Mike!

wrs vs panthers2Lots to celebrate Warriors but don’t be afraid to show our young Warriors your support.  Cheer Loud.  Cheer Proud. LET’S GO WARRIORS! #Warriors4Life
