FSK Jr Eagles Football & Cheerleading

In 1968, Pastor Lee Barry and the late Cecil Lewelling, Sr. joined forces to start a youth football program.  When the idea began, Cecil stated that he could get the kids but did not have the funds for the equipment.  Mr. Barry said that “if you get the kids, I’ll get the equipment.”  Mr Lewelling went door-to-door recruiting youths to play on the first football team.  Mr. Barry kept his word and supplied all new uniforms and equipment to suit up 25 kids.  So, in 1969, the Taneytown Tigers took the field as the first youth football team in Taneytown.  In 1970, the cheerleaders were introduced and coached by the late Jeannette Lewelling.  Mrs. Lewelling made all of the cheerleading outfits for the first few years.  Now, over the years, the league has expanded and changed from the Taneytown Tigers to the FSK Jr. Eagles Football and Cheerleading.

Mr. Cecil Lewelling passed recently.  It is in his honor that we dedicate our 2010 season in his memory.  We are gratefull for what he helped start as we move forward into our 40th year.

As with the start of our program our current board members wish to provide to you the best opportunity of learning and enjoyment for you and your family.  If you see anything that we might be able to improve upon or have ideas that you think we could benefit from please do not hesitate to communicate with us.  Come out and get involved!  We are looking forward to an exciting 2010 season.
