The Falcons play 8 on 8. The Panthers play 11 on 11. I dont think you can compare the two. Panthers have an awesome QB and a defense like youve never seen from a team that age!!! Well done coaches!!!!

and they also have rude coaches...and the president of their organization allows the coaches and team members to have horrible sportsmanship....but at least they had a great season!

The Falcons? Never heard of them playing anybody. Panther's played teams from NY, NJ, DE,& MD. Good job Panthers!!!!!

The Fruitland Falcons organization is a joke. Certain kids get special treatment because of who they are or who their parents are. Would let my kid play there again.

Fruitland falcons have a first rate organization the best on the shore their travel teams went undefeated as well. @8:25 don't blame the organization that your kid wasn't a stand out player but if he is at Pop Warner at least you found a place.

First, congratulations to the Panthers. They have accomplished a perfect season. Great job. Second, the Fruitland Falcons do play 11 man football as a Travel Team. The Travel Teams for Fruitland did not go undefeated this year but have done so in the past. They also do play 3 teams from out of state, Virginaia. Finally, a game between the Panthers and the Falcons would be great for the community. Both programs should be commended for their contributions to the community and more importantly to the kids. Thems the facts.

Great job panthers. The coaching staff this team has is unbelievable. For the people who say there is no sportsmanship on this team you are crazy. We had one unsportsmen penalty called on them all year long. That kid got taken out of the game and the next practice he ran laps all practice. Coach meet and his staff did a wonderfully job on and off the field. That's the facts

People keep forgetting that this team is comprised of children 9-11. People talk about them negatively instead of praising them for what they have accomplished. This is part of the problem here. No one in the community stands behind our local teams and children. They could be doing other things instead of playing football. Let's be proud of All of our community children.

I'm glad to see a competitive spirit brewing in these two leagues I bet we will see our local high school teams benefit greatly in the coming years and all of these young men will be playing with and against each other for years to come.

Congratulations to the Panthers, it is great to have another successful organization in the area. The difference in 11man vs. 8man football is minor at best. If your kids can play they can play, but remember the Falcons turn no one down, rather than can pay or not, they do not turn away the bigger kids, the do not have a few kids they have more like 350 kids they are improving the lifes of. No one will agree who is better both organizations have a purpose and must be doing a great job to have the success. My son will continue to be a Falcon as we do not quit! Coaching with the Falcons I know we would love more than anything to play other governing bodies but their rules will not work with our 11man team.

I am very excited for the Panthers, I think you all should be commended from the parents and coaches to the kids for their hard work. They are only 9-10 year old kids who are giving their all and staying out of trouble. No matter which organization you are apart of you can support the other!
