2008-08-20T09:29:00.003-04:00

As you can see, due to circumstances beyond TYF's control, our beloved A Team will be on the road for all but one game this season. What can we, the fans, do to give the players and cheerleaders that "at home" feeling?

The answer: MAKE SOME NOISE!!!

Cheer loudly for the team during games with the help of Tallmadge Blue Devil Spirit Shack noise makers! Team Mom Jill Beaumont, a Spirit Shack Board Member (who knew?), will have all types of Blue Devil noise makers for sale, including clapping hands, horns and more! See Jill to get your spirit gear ASAP!!
