A look back at the club's first year after Bloomingdale and Butler merger.
For a long time, the football players in Butler and Bloomingdale were adversaries.

The two organizations were finally going to join forces and merge. The BBYC was now formed. As practice began back in August there was an excitement in the air. In the beginning, that excitement was tempered by some caution on how the two towns would handle the merger. The mantra from the start was “One team, one dream."
