Senior Night is over, our appreciation for them isn't
Give me small town high school football all day
Loved surprising our seniors with Johnny's breakfast sandwiches this morning (New Fairfield’s highest form of appreciation)
Thankful for the staff that backed these guys
Proud of THIS team, blessed to be part of the journey #cthsfb
Hardwork works!!
After a great conversation with @CoachBroScott and @coachdveach I am blessed to receive my first division 1 offer!!! @UNewHavenFB @Abaskerville_7 @M2_QBacademy

Rebel Football Captains for 2026
Braydon Hill & Zach Dudas
They earned it, now comes the responsibility
But leadership doesn't stop with 2 guys
We have a locker room full of guys capable of leading
Title or no title we need everyone leading
2026 FB team is coming together at the right time
Electric start to the season from our guys-this group has come out with real energy, urgency, and purpose.
This offseason we made a clear commitment to doing things differently by prioritizing SPEED, keeping athletes fresh, and making every rep count.
Huge thank you to Coach @ErikBecker42 at Daniel Hand Football, Brad Dixon for sharing what they’ve built and helping us implement Tony Holler’s @pntrack Feed the Cats philosophy. This profession is better when coaches share and grow together.
The results are already clear: OUR GUYS ARE FASTER. ⚡️
Even more proud of our staff for embracing change and challenging old habits-and our players for buying in right away.
Focused summer. Fresh legs. Fast football.
Now we keep building.
Wrapped up preseason yesterday with a great barbecue
Huge thank you to our Gridiron Board for putting it together
The food was great, but the best part was seeing the guys laugh and enjoy time together
2026 Season began today
And after 20+ years coaching Fortunate & Grateful for the chance to coach each one of these 55 kids, for the families who trust us with their sons, and for a staff that gives everything to this program.
We have no idea what this season is going to bring
We don't know what plays will be remembered
We don't know what adversity we'll face or the victories we'll celebrate
We don't know which moments become stories we tell years from now
But It never gets old & That's why there is nowhere else we'd rather be
Ask any Rebel pictured here what they learned today at Shrub Oak International School for Autism
Communication, Patience Empathy Leadership
Adaptability Teamwork.
While most teenagers were sleeping in, our players were developing life skills that matter far beyond football during our visit to Shrub Oak International School for Autism
College coaches: If you're looking for young men who compete with character, lead with humility, and represent your program the right way, take a look at New Fairfield Football. If they work this hard OFF the field, just imagine what they'll do ON the field
Proud doesn't begin to describe how I feel watching these young men represent our program, our school, and our community

A week in the life of a Rebel Football player. ❤️💙
Three days at youth camp. Early mornings in the weight room. Speed work under a Rebel Blue Sky. All of it building toward Friday Night Lights.
This is what we’re building: culture, effort, and accountability.
College coaches—take notice. New Fairfield Rebel Football is producing kids who work, lead, and compete the right way.
Proud of this group.
As we close camp, I want to say thank you.
Thank you to our players for showing up, leading, and doing the work behind the scenes to make this camp run the right way.
And thank you to everyone who helped make this week what it was.
Now we get back to work

Rebel Football is FAMILY
Not a Business.
Built BY Kids FOR Kids.
Our players aren’t here because they have to be. They’re here because they care about the next generation of Rebels. They volunteer their time, lead by example, and give back to the community that helped shape them.
College coaches: if you’re looking for young men who understand leadership, service, accountability, and team-first culture, take a closer look at New Fairfield Football.

2026 Bringing back Rebel Pride
#Family
Turning the page after a special year is never easy.
Nowhere I'd rather be for the 2025-26 school year!
A lifetime of memories, and I'm incredibly grateful and proud to coach @NFHSRebels . Our football, lacrosse and Unified Sports programs set the standard with their toughness, character, and commitment to each other and our community.
To any college coaches looking to recruit from New Fairfield: you're getting battle-tested student-athletes who lead, compete, and represent something bigger than themselves.
This year brought some of the highest highs and toughest losses of my coaching career, but I wouldn't trade any of it. Those moments shape who we become.
Proud of what we built
Grateful for every player, coach, and family who made it special.

Great visit! You can see clearly how @CoachTParsons built it right, “can’t miss on recruits” mindset only allows for
Tough, driven, high-character guys who fit their culture
Always appreciate @NFRebelPower for making time for me to come in and meet his potential college players. Really great questions from the group today!
