    The Complete History of Bettendorf Football: 1951 ‐ Present An official production of www.bettendorffootball.com Edition 3.0 – May 6, 2011 © 2002‐2011 © www.bettendorffootball.com Edition 3.0 – May 6, 2011 © www.bettendorffootball.com Edition 3.0 – May 6, 2011 3rd Edition Overview First things first: simply put, this is anyone who ever has been a fan of Bettendorf Football. Certainly, it’s for all the coaches and players—past and present—who have shaped a dynasty with their commitment, discipline, and hard work. Finally, it’s for the players of tomorrow who simply need to do one thing: “Uphold the tradition.” This project initially began in July of 2007 and after pestering Coach Habenicht to write a Special Introduction—which he did on November 22, 2007—continued for the next year and a half. Finally, just before January 1st, 2009, the 1st Edition was finally completed. Two editions late, I asked Coach Scott to write his take on the 32-years he spent coaching BETT football and that is now included in the ebook. What exactly was done? Well, in short, all the information and data from the website was transferred into book form to preserve all the research and work that’s been done. Basically, if an EMP explodes or the site goes offline (for whatever reason), history has been preserved ala paper as opposed to digitally. Since the publication of that 1st Edition, more information has been updated. So, does that mean this 3rd Edition is perfect? Of course not—but every attempt possible was made to make it as error-free as possible.
