Thanks in advance for those that choose to help. By making us stay on Disney property the cost is unbelievable. We will be there for a week and be in the top 4 in the Nation in Pop Warner. We still have to win in San Antonio this weekend to make it but we have to prepare now. The cost is about $20,000 for the week. Anything can happen but it's a great opportunity for these boys to play for a National Championship.


The Orange Longhorns travelled to McAllen, TX this past Saturday to compete in the Pop Warner Semi-Finals.  They walked away with a 37-8 victory over the South Texas Cardinals (Corpus Christie) to complete another step in their trek to the Pop Warner National Championship in Orlando, Florida. They face College Station Raiders this Saturday in San Antonio in the Southwest Regional Championship.  

The team of 10-12 year olds is coached by Damion "Domino" Henson, Mavis Williams, Tony Dallas, Dave Pederson, Marcus Turner, Kent Miller, Miguel Gobert and David Bright.  The team wishes to thank the following sponsors for their continued support: Orange Savings Bank, The Salvation Army, BASF, SABINA, Granger Chevrolet Sales Team, DuPont, Dennis Huntley- Farmers Insurance Group, Bobby and Susan Swan and Tony Dallas Insurance Agency.

There are only two things holding the Longhorns back from attending the Championship week in Orlando, where they will face teams from cross the nation-- 1) A win this weekend in San Antonio and 2) money!   The team has held numerous fundraisers- concession stands, IPAD raffle, t-shirt sales, business and parent donations, etc.  However, the majority of this money has been used for field usage, referees and travel to various locations in Texas.

The kids are doing their part by playing hard on the field and in the classroom, now they are asking for your support in sending them to Orlando. They are asking for a pledge donation. Money is [i][b]only [/b] [/i] collected upon the team qualifying to attend the Pop Warner Super Bowl in Florida. If you would like more information on becoming a pledge, please email [email protected] or [email protected] and put in the subject line: "I Want to Pledge" and you will be contacted by a Longhorn volunteer.  Or, you may donate directly to the account at ORANGE SAVINGS BANK, Account number 1342906.  Pop Warner is a non-profit organization.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for these kids, please support the Longhorns!

Good post Tony! I got to see these kids play last year. They are a good group of kids and deserving at this shot to go to Disney to the Super Bowl! I do hope that the kind and generous folks on this board read your post and respond generously. I'm in for $100 and challenge all the SETexas sports fans to help too. Good luck this weekend in San Antonio!

I agree. I also support the Longhorns, and I'm in for 100 also. I will make the necessary contact to give my contribution. Let's go Longhorn's..
P.S. I believe this message should have it's on thread, imo.

Best of luck on your way to San Antonio, but who wrote this article, a sixth grader?  I would think KFDM employs someone to edit artilcles before they post them to the internet.

We have already contacted them and asked them to make changes to the article or allow us to make the changes. They are the ones who wrote the article. When we read it last night this is the response we were afraid we would get. I wish we had been able to write it ourselves. We do appreciate the publicity though.


98 I don't think he is hating the Longhorns just being honest about the grammar, punctuation and capitalization in the article. He's not wrong in what he said and since we didn't write it then it isn't negative towards the Longhorns.

Thanks to all of our supporters. If you wish to help in any way there are articles about the Orange Longhorns on this site as well as kfdm.com and kogt.com

Hate?  I have helped to coach several of those guys in baseball, and I truly wish them nothing but the best.  It's funny that you think that, but whatever floats your boat.  I have no reason to wish anything but the best for your team. 
Jealous?  Again, I don't know how you read that into a post about poor grammar, but okay.  I'm very proud of my boys, and we had an outstanding year.  Nothing to be jealous over.
Just because I find the article poorly written, that makes me a negative person?
Anyway, i'm a pretty easy going guy, and not that hard to figure out.  Why so defensive?

Sorry Chester. I think your words were misunderstood. We know how you feel about the boys on this team. Thanks for the support.
