The Waldron Little League Football Bulldogs are licking their chops in anticipation for the 2019 season. Coming off of a stellar 2018 season, the Bulldogs are gaining speed towards being a year in and year out competitor in their league. They go by the motto of “Rise As One.” Couple that with some really sweet new helmets and the sky is the limit for the 2019 Bulldog program.
Co-Football Commissioners Thomas B Mays and Jared Kluthe have rallied the town around the growth of the program like never before. The community is buzzing about the program because they can see the potential for the future of Waldron football.
Coach Thomas B Mays said, “Our expectations are raised really high coming into the 2019 season. Our teams are looking very promising. We’ve made a few new changes with our programs. Our 3rd and 4th grade coaches will be Dwayne Blackmon, Tony Blackmon, William Helton, and Head Coach Tylor Hudson. Our 5th and 6th grade coaches will be Thomas Mays, Jared Kluthe, and Ryan Brown. Last year we had a great year and we’re looking to take that momentum into this season. We have a great group of coaches that put out kids first. We also have great support from the community along with the Waldron School District. Our High School football coach has gone above and beyond to try and help our program. We appreciate Coach Bates and his staff. Regardless of this seasons outcome, we’re already winners.”
Coach Jared Kluthe said, “We are looking forward to another great season. With our numbers on a slow rise, the program is starting to show more enthusiasm from the community. After two days at the camp with the school, High School Head Coach, Jonathan Bates, is excited about the future of our programs and sees great things coming. We are extremely proud to have their support along with the community’s support and it’s like we tell the athletes, together we will rise as one.”
The Waldron Little League Bulldogs will have two more signups which will be held on June 22nd and July 13th from 10:00-12:00 at the gazebo on Main Street.
