Struggle and Triumph from page A 1
Boys Club said it could no longer
finance the program or offer the
facilities for the team to practice
and play its games. By the 1982
season, a home had been found and
with the leadership and dedication
of several individuals, the dream
was kept alive. WSSU took the pro
gram under its wings and offered a
temporary home. Still, the program
was in desperate financial condition.
Under the direction of Issac
"Ike" Howard the Tiny Indians
Football Club. Inc., was founded.
The non-profit program would ha\e
to raise its own mone> and^mtroL
its own destiny. Two years later, the
program moved to its current home.
Atkins Field. The program has con
tinued to prosper, although each
season the directors struggle to
make ends meet. There are currently
over 200 boys and girls participat
ing in the program. Many of these
would not have an outlet for their
abilities if the program did not exist.
The program continues to
search to break new ground. How
ever, it is in need of financial sup
port from the community and par
ents.
The track record of the program
is indeed strong. Many of the lead
ers in the community came up
through the program. It is almost
impossible to look at a high school
football roster in the local school
system without noticing the names
of former Tiny Indians. We've came
a long way, but we've got a long
way to go.
We need your support.
