Youngstown Federals

Post by Kicker3 » Mon Aug 11, 2014 6:34 pm

A person claims to be starting a team in the AIF for the 2015 season the Youngstown Federals playing in Youngstown Ohio. The owner we found out was the owner of the Rochester Raiders who had his ownership taken away from him because of alot illegal activities (It wasnt health reasons like they claim that was part of the agreement he made with the league). He owes money all over Rochester and owes his staff and Players money before the new owners took over. The staff and Players are taking legal action against him that is pending. He claims to be holding tryouts Oct 25th in Youngstown Ohio at the Watts center. This tryouts is a scam just like he scamed the Players Staff and people of Rochester including the Mayor of the city.Just writing this post to let players and Staff to beware of this guys and about giving him any money for tryouts. We have been in contact with the AIF and they told us they have nothing to do with this person or him joining the AIF

Then why isn't the AIF putting out statements that this guy is not part of the AIF, and sending the guy Cease and Desist papers.

My guess would be that the AIF wants to distance themselves as much as possible. He is a joke and the AIF needs to not acknowledge anything at all. The perception would be that they have talked to him. Be careful Youngstown!

Given Youngstown was near the home of the EIEIOFL disaster, I would think the locals would think twice before allowing anyone to start a team in the area that's not immediately on the up and up.

For what it's worth, the AIF has already listed its 2015 lineup of teams. The Youngstown Federals are not on it. The team's originally posted logo was also a direct ripoff of the Washington Federals logo.

Looks nothing like the Washington Federals. To my surprise, it actually looks rather impressive!!

I just saw on the Youngstown federals Facebook page that his Youngstown Team are looking for a league and Venue to play in. Thats not what he originally he said. He said he was in the AIF. Players that want to try out for this team he is a fraud and they will never see there money again or play indoor Football for the Youngstown Federals. If you dont believe me ask any Semi Pro teams in the Newcastle Pa area and his ownership in the Rochester area for his Raiders Team

That's not the originally posted logo. It's the second logo posted for the team after the owner got called out on Facebook for ripping off the Washington Federals with the first logo.
