Default CEFL STARTS 30TH. SEASON

The Charlotte Electric Football League in Rochester NY begins it's 30th year on October 13. The league started play in 1981 with 6 players in the basement of John DiCarlo's ( Larue's) house,which came to be known as Subterranean Stadium which features a 46 inch scoreboard and game clock,closed circuit video of each game, a concession stand and a complete stock of any and all Electric Football equipment which is available to it's members. Counting regular season play,playoffs,tournaments and exhibitions there have bee over 1000 games played in the stadium.The league has 12 members and plays on Wednesday nights with games at 6 and 7:30.We use several different game boards (all at least 46 x 24).
If I wrote down every crazy and fun thing that has taken place in these past years it would be the size of a phone book,It has been a wonderful 30 years and I would do it all again..........but I am running out of time.
John DiCarlo ( Larue)
CEFL Commissioner

Default Larue

I am totally impressed by the longevity of your league and the extensive nature of Subteranean Stadium.

I hope to stop by sometime in the near future and check you guys out.

Good luck on another great season and wishes for many more to come.

Default Congratulations CEFL!

I hope you have another memorable season.

The article on your league in the Tweak is still one of my favorites as it truly showed the love and passion that you guys have for the game.

Congrats, John

By the way, you can read a very interesting article in an old Tweak Mag issue (2007 if I remember correctly) telling the story of that league
