Well well folks, its that time of year again when people in the community begin talking football. Delaware County Football.. More specifically DELCO MONARCHS FOOTBALL... AKA THE MONARCH NATION.
Coach Greg and team president / owner Darius Taylor know what people are saying??? The Monarchs can't compete with the Colwyn Comets, the 69th Street Wildcats or Penn Wood Middle School when it comes to recruiting kids. The Monarchs should fold, they'll never be successful. Well, six years in, the Monarchs are still here and proving there critics wrong. Me and Darius talk all the time about the past, the present and the future of the organization Coach Greg said. I think we got a good grasp of what it will take. And while winning is important, it's also crucial to reach out to these kids and teach them lessons they'll take with them in life. Plain and simple, its more than just football Darius said.
I know being a head coach will come with headaches, tons of paper work, sighs of frustration and the occasional phone call from a player or a player's parent. I know what to expect Coach Greg said. And so does Darius. We are just bracing for what going to happen next. Were still taking baby steps but we can both see the progress. The good thing about us is we are no longer under the radar. The kids know who we are now. And we are starting to receive some much need support from the school district and the community.
Its crazy. I get kids knocking on my door all the time new assistant Coach Gene said. Especially since its getting warn. Sometimes they want to talk. Sometimes they bring new players to sign-up. Other times they ask to borrow a football so they can play catch or a game at the "Moose" which is our home field. I can tell football season is around the corner.
COME OUT & GET INVOLVED. THE FUTURE BEGINS HERE....
A future Monarch rubs his eyes, while other parents look on...
