Tourism News For Immediate Release, August 6, 2015 Contact: Nancy Lutz, 845-463-5446 Dutchess County, Renegades Welcome Hudson Valley Fort to Dutchess Stadium Minor-league football team begins play at Dutchess County park Poughkeepsie… Dutchess County Executive Marc Molinaro and the Hudson Valley Renegades today announced the Hudson Valley Fort, a minor-league football team playing in the Fall Experimental Football League (FXFL), will play at Dutchess Stadium, the Dutchess County park the Renegades have call home since 1994. The first of the team’s three regular-season games in Fishkill will take place on October 10th. “Autumn in the Hudson Valley is pretty special; the fall will be better in Dutchess County because we are adding football to the foliage,” County Executive Molinaro said. “We look forward to defending the Fort.” The FXFL is a professional football league, which was founded in May 2014 by Commissioner and CEO Brian Woods. Woods’ vision was to create a developmental platform for professional football talent. The FXFL business model incorporates partnerships with Minor League Baseball organizations and the utilization of smaller venues to better engage its fan base. Prior to the Renegades’ 2014 season, Dutchess County invested more than $1 million in refurbishments to Dutchess Stadium, including an artificial-turf playing surface. Team officials said that field was a factor in bringing the FXFL franchise to Fishkill. “Growing the economic benefit of Dutchess Stadium is a priority for us. Now, we not only celebrate and make use of this field as a traditional baseball stadium, but we welcome other, alternative activities,” County Executive Marc Molinaro said. “Bringing a Hudson Valley professional football team to Dutchess Stadium is an exciting addition to Dutchess County and the region as a whole.” Based on attendance of Fort games, Dutchess County will earn additional revenue from the new team’s use of Dutchess Stadium. Headquartered in New York City, the league counts ESPN3 and more than 20 regional sports networks among its broadcast partners. FXFL games are played on weeknights to avoid scheduling conflicts with the NFL and collegiate football. The league currently boasts teams in Brooklyn, NY; Niles, Ohio; and Florida with players emanating from such collegiate football powerhouses as the University of Florida, Baylor University, N.C. State, Oklahoma and Clemson, among others. Fort games will give local fans more opportunities to enjoy Dutchess Stadium, as well visiting spectators the opportunity to enjoy everything the Hudson Valley has to offer in autumn.

Broncos' Emmanuel Sanders Sheds Walking Boot After Achilles Surgery
LOOK: Broncos’ Emmanuel Sanders sheds walking boot after Achilles surgery By Kyle Fredrickson Denver Post Feb. 6, 2019 If Emmanuel Sanders’ dance moves are any indication, he’s reached an important milestone in his injury rehabilitation this offseason. Sanders, a ninth-year Broncos’ wide receiver who tore his Achilles during practice in December, posted a video Monday to Instagram of himself hopping out of a black Mercedes-Benz SUV — without a walking boot — before a quick celebratory jig. His caption read: “Slight limp but I’m finally out of the boot.” Two months have passed between Sanders’ injury and the post, but a long journey remains for him to be able to play. Former NFL team doctor David Chao told The Denver Post in December: “Recovery is not like a light switch, more of a slow sunrise. Some have returned as early as six months but may not have been 100 percent. Nine months is a good target but to really be explosive (it) could be longer and closer to a year. This is why I expect (Sanders) likely will not be ready or 100 percent for start of (the 2019) season.” However, Sanders expressed little doubt in December he’ll return to being the same playmaker he showcased in 12 games last season with a team-leading 71 receptions for 868 yards. He also accounted for six total touchdowns (four receiving, one rushing and one passing). “I’ll definitely for sure be ready for Week 1,” Sanders said in December. “This is a six-month injury. I heal fast.” Never-before-told stories about Pat Bowlen from those who know him best — his children By Mike Klis 9 News Feb.

Our owner, Cal Ripken Jr., retired from baseball knowing that he wanted to give something back to the game that treated him so well. By bringing a Minor League Baseball franchise to the municipality that raised him, he did just that. Fifteen years later, the IronBirds are a strong representation of Harford County, Baltimore County and the DMV region. The IronBirds are a franchise dedicated to providing a truly world-class experience every man, woman and child that passes through the gates of Leidos Field at Ripken Stadium.
