[VELVET CLOSER]

I grew up in the Belfry area and played tons of youth sports in Williamson. Hell KY elementary schools had teams that played in Williamson's youth leagues. It has always been this way.

When they put Mingo Central so far away from the County seat they basically made Williamson East Belfry by default.

I also grew up in Ky, in the Belfry area, attended school in the belfry feeder system and played sports in WV. Little league baseball, babe ruth and legion baseball. I also played a year in the Mingo co football league. Growing up and still to this day I had and have as many friends In WV as I do KY. My father attended Williamson and my mother attended Belfry, it is just the way it is in this area. We had many students and athletes that chose to not attended Belfry and take there skills to nearby Williamson WV. and vice versa. Williamson had a all American basketball player that was from Belfry and there have been players crossing the river since the sixties.

Belfry has a top notch football program that any parent would want there kid to be apart of if that is there sport of choice. It's NOT GOING TO CHANGE, as long as it's done within the rules of the KHSAA, and trust me all transfers will be attending with in the rules! So get over it and move on, it's beating a dead horse.
