This is a historical rather than current web site for the Raiders.   There is a new official site listed in the Main Menu box below.  You can go there to hook up with current board members, get registration information and more.  Or click here.  This is the start of the 11th season for the club.  It’s nice to see the club still going strong.

As a former Raider parent, I can tell you that Pop Warner is a great experience for the kids and for parents.  I’ll never forget the 1996 and 1997 championship football runs with my son’s team.   Hard to believe it’s been 10 years since that championship.  It’s a feat that’s still not been repeated by a Jersey Shore team.   The successful cheer competitions with my daughter are another lasting memory.  Pop Warner and Rocket-mania all star cheerleading were great.  Give the Raiders a try if you’re in the Toms River HS South school district.   I think they are called the Toms River South Raiders now.

Club History And Achievements – 1996-1999

The Raiders organization was formed and joined the Jersey Shore Pop Warner Football League in 1996.  In it’s short history, the club has already enjoyed tremendous success in both football and cheerleading, including a National Football Championship in our inaugural season!

 

1996 Jr. Pee Wee Football National Champions!   A season we will never forget! Common expressions included: "D-FENSE, D-FENSE!", "Road Trip!", "Can you believe this?!", Coach Jack's famous "Are you kidding me or what!", Bob and Charlie's "We're goin' to Disney World!" dance. This was the FIRST and is still the ONLY football National Championship from the Jersey Shore!

1996 Pee Wee Cheer, 3rd place, Mid-Atlantic Region - just missed a trip to Nationals!

1996 Jr. Midget Football, Jersey Shore A South Division winners

1997 Pee Wee Football, Mid-Atlantic Region Runner-ups -  a great run continued from 1996, falling just a little short in the Regional Championship game! - just missed another trip to Nationals! Still got one road trip in there though! The team wound up A South Division, South Conference, and NJ State champions as well as Mid-Atlantic Regional Runner-ups!

1997 Midget Football, 3rd place in the A South division and in it 'til the end!

1997 Jr. Pee Wee Cheer - made into the second round of local competition and placed 3rd. Good job ladies!

1998 Jr. Midget Football, 2nd place in Jersey Shore. Great job guys!

1999 Our Midget Cheer Squad Placed 3rd in Small Varsity at Nationals! Great job ladies!

Our Jr. Midget and Jr. Pee Wee Football Teams placed 8th and 10th respectively in the NATION for scholastic achievement! Congratulations men!

 1999 was my last year of involvement with the club.  The first 4 seasons of it’s existence.
