THE FMF WAYFor over 45 years, Flemington Midget Football has provided instruction and support to thousands

of successful athletes. During that time, we have developed a unique culture, based around five

core beliefs that guide everything we do. “The FMF Way”, is what al lows us to successful ly

develop our athletes physical ly, mental ly and emotionally while providing them with positive

experiences and memories that wil l last a l ifetime. THE FMF WAY is:

FAMILYOnce a member, always a member

SAFETYAthlete safety first, last & always

TEACHINGCoaching is teaching

TEAMWE@ not me

SUCCESSShare the work, share the reward

Team success is a by-product of coaches developing every athlete to their personal potential as

they progress through the program. Good teams become great when coaches view practice as an

opportunity to help their athletes grow and develop and when athletes view practice as an

opportunity to maximize their contribution to the team.

No one can win by themselves. We all have to trust and rely on each other for the team to be

successful. Both coaches & athletes must be prepared to do whatever is necessary for the good of

the team. Great teams are built on Teamwork, Dedication, Effort and Trust. . . lessons that wil l help

our athletes succeed in sports and in l ife.

I t is every coach’s responsibi l ity to teach the fundamental ski l ls and strategies of their sport to ALL

of their athletes. I t is every athlete’s responsibi l ity to put forth the effort to learn. I f an athlete gives

the effort, coaches must do whatever is necessary to help them learn and improve. Athletes that

progress through our program giving honest effort WILL enter high school with a competitive

advantage in skil ls and tactics

The health and safety of our athletes comes before everything else. Parents trust us with their

chi ldren; we must do everything in our power to return them safely. Athletes must let their coach

know if they are injured and must not return to action unti l they are ful ly ready.

Whenever an athlete competes as a Pioneer or Jr. Red Devil , they join a long tradition of

excellence. Many have come before us; we must honor their work by our actions. Many wil l come

after us; we must provide them with a program to be proud of. Once an athlete becomes part of

our FMF family, they wil l forever be welcome here.

TRYOUT

Flemington Midget Football is a 501 (c)3 organization dedicated to improving the youth of Hunterdon Countythrough competitive Football and Cheer. One of the oldest youth football organizations in the area, from our

founding in 1 967 through 201 0, FMF teams were exclusively known as the Flemington Pioneers. Since 2009, wehave undergone tremendous growth and have reclaimed our original name of FMF. In 2009, we added ourextended season competition cheer team. In 201 0, with the addition our Hunterdon Jr. Red Devils teams, ourfootbal l offerings were expanded from four football teams participating in one league to ten football teamsparticipating in three leagues. In 201 3 we were able to offer, for the first time, an Extended Season CheerTraining Squad for girls who were either too young or not yet prepared for the rigors of our Extended SeasonComp. Team. Thoughout al l of our recent growth, we have worked hard to stay true to our guiding principles ,"The FMF Way", and maintain our position as the premier youth football and cheer program in the central

Hunterdon region.

Pioneer Varsity dominates Patriots behind Furmato’s four TDs.

Daniel Furmato led the Flemington Pioneers with four touchdowns as the Pioneers

beat the North Warren Patriots 34-1 3 on Sunday afternoon at the FMF Complex. The game,

original ly scheduled for Saturday night was moved to Sunday due to dangerous

thunderstorms that moved through the area Saturday.

ball , and proceeded to dominate their opponent,

jumping out to a big lead, and then cruising to

victory. The offense was paced by Furmato,

yards and ended his day early in the third

quarter. Bruising runs by RJ Thornton and Brian

Torres behind the crushing blocks of Ryan

Donovan, Jeffrey Anderson, Jordan Cameron

and Dylan Campbell kept the Patriot defense off

balance throughout the first half.

As the first half wound down, Joey Whalen hauled in a 29-yard touchdown pass from

Justin Torres to push the lead to 28-0. Torres was efficient passing in the first half, going 2-

for3 for 49 yards and one touchdown.

On Saturday, Sept. 6, the JRD Skylands

varsity opened their 201 4 season at Voorhees high

threat of thunderstorms, the JRD kicked off to start

the game. Chris Schwoerer's kick sent the Vikings

back to their 1 0 yard l ine . With pressure from Nick

Brunetti , Christian Callahan, Tim Hough and Terry

Murphy, the ball was fumbled and recovered by

Murphy at the 2. With Brad Totten at quarterback,

and Murphy and Luke Pizzico in the backfield, Murphy's first two attempts to score were

stopped at the 1 yard l ine. On 3rd down, Pizzico was stopped for no gain. Going for it on 4th

down, Totten pitched to Murphy going right and behind blocking from Luke Bakerian, Chris

Lalas and Jason Cozzi, Murphy ran in for the score. The extra point was no good and the JRD

led by a score of 6-0. The JRD kicked off and the Vikings returned the kick to the JRD 44. The

defense, led by Hough, Bakerian, Mike Sposato, Jaiden Taylor, Lalas, Callahan, Schwoerer,

Hough, Cozzi, Murphy and Pizzico stopped another Vikings drive at the 37. With 4th and 3 ,

the Vikings elected to go for it and ran 37 yards down the left side for a touchdown. The extra

point was good and the score was now 8-6. The Vikings kickoff was downed in the end zone

and returned out to the 20. On 1 st down, a reverse to Schwoerer was good for 8 yards, but a

motion penalty wiped out that gain and backed the JRD to their 1 5. A second motion call

against the JRD moved the ball further back to the 1 0. A short run by Murphy and a reverse by

Taylor gave the JRD 3rd and1 0 at their 20. Pizzico punted to the JRD 35. One play later the

Vikings scored on a 35 yard run. The extra point was good and the Vikings led 1 6-6.

2nd quarter:

The JRD opened the 2nd quarter at their own 9. Two great runs by Murphy brought the

JRD out to the 36. Tottens pass to Taylor was incomplete. Murphy broke another run to the 50

where the loose ball was recovered by Schwoerer at the Vikings 45. Two plays later the JRD

was at the 38, but a penalty brought the ball back 1 5 yds to the JRD 47. After 3 and out,

Pizzico punted to the 35. A fumble by the Vikings was recovered by Sposato at the 46. After a

short run by Murphy, a penalty brought the ball back 1 5 yds to the JRD 44. A Viking penalty

moved the ball up 5 yds. Totten hit Schwoerer for a

3 yd gain to the Vikings 48. With visible l ightning,

the referees stopped the game. After waiting 30

a pass attempt to Bakarian, Murphy ripped off a 24 yd run that was called back for i l legal motion.

On the next play, Totten found Schwoerer for a 54 yd touchdown pass. Schwoerer's extra point

was good and the JRD cut the Vikings lead to 1 6-1 4. JRD kickoff was covered well by the JRD

special teams with Jack Aimone and Max Kurdlya in on the stop . Voorhees mounted a good

drive towards the end of the quarter, but pressure from the solid defensive l ine of Hough,

Bakerian, Callahan and McClel lan caused a fumble that was recovered by the JRD at the 1 0 with

1 8 secs left.

3rd quarter:

The JRD received the 2nd half kickoff at their own 24. JRD was unable to mount a drive

and were forced to punt. Vikings also went 3 and out and punted back to the JRD 32. A run and

middle for a 40 yd touchdown. Schwoerer's extra point was good, and the JRD took the lead 22-

1 6 going into the 4th quarter.

4th quarter:

Starting at the JRD 48, the Vikings were unable to mount any offense. The D line held a

couple runs to short yard gains and the secondary sealed off the ends to stop a crucial drive. The

Vikings went for it on 4th and 3 and were stopped. JRD took over at their own 40. A run to the 44

and a loss back to the 40 setup a crucial 3rd and 1 0. Totten completed a 1 4 yd pass at the Viking

Sposato, Callahan, Cozzi, Saracinel lo and Kurt Rainey provided solid blocking for the running

loose and the Vikings recovered back at the JRD 40. On the first play, the Vikings took a 40 yd

run for a score and with the extra point being good, the Vikings now led 24-22 with 1 :39 left in the

game. JRD took the kick up to the 30. A Vikings penalty and a run to the 42 looked like the JRD

may be able to make this game closer. But a turnover at 45 was all the Vikings needed to finish

the game with a 24-22 victory.

While his wheelchair kept him from taking part on the field, it couldn't keep him from being part of theteam. At the end of every summer, l ike the changing of the seasons, Jimmy was there to usher in footbal l

season. He was as much a part of the Pioneer family as the crack of pads echoing through the crisp autumn airand the roar of the crowd on game day. For close to a decade, Jimmy never missed a game, indeed, he nevermissed a practice in al l of his time with us. His love for the game and for the team was infectious and wil l beforever remembered. In 1 994, after his passing, the organization recognized Jimmy's contribution to our family

by naming the playing field after him and retiring the number one jersey, in memory of their #1 fan.

JOSEPH YASHKAS6/4/85 - 4/29/00 : Forever a Pioneer

Joey Yashkas was a Pioneer through and through. He played football for the program and was a greatteammate and a key member of the team from his peewee days through his eigth grade season. As much ashe loved football and his teammates, Joey also loved racing motorcycles. I t was this love that took Joey from usfar too soon. After the tragic motorcycle accident that took his l ife in 2000, the organization retired his number55 and decreed that in remembrance of Joey and Jimmy, their numbers 1 and 55 be painted in the corner of the

endzone for every home game so that they wil l always be part of our family.
