Bronx Buccaneers football club meet on Saturdays in the Williamsbridge Oval in Norwood from 11 a.m. to 1p.m. The session consists of a “Bootcamp” comprising strength, cardio and endurance training and the group also uses weights, bands and other equipment. The sessions are in preparation for the team’s upcoming Tackle football program which begins March 19 and every Saturday thereafter from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., where kids are taught the fundamentals of football in a safe, fun atmosphere. Understanding there is more to football, the Buccaneers strive to develop the students/athletes, and the hope is that the players will use the program not only as a stepping stone to advance to upper level sports in High School and college, but also as a means to engage in a positive behavior and as a healthy distraction from idleness which the group says can lead to poor decisions. The Buccaneers accept kids from any community, boys or girls, ages 6 to 14. Contact Tasha Andrews at (917) 662-3632 for further information.

FILM
Multimedia exhibition Bronx BandA: Love and Resilience opens on January 31 and runs through May 13 at the Casita Maria Gallery located at 928 Simpson Street, in the Hunts Point neighborhood of the South Bronx. The exhibition centers on the story of BronX BandA, as well as the Bronxites who inspired their music. Using oral histories, video, photography, and newly released BronX BandA album, coloring book and short film titled The Casita Sessions, gallery visitors will experience a diverse mix of storytelling methods celebrating Bronx culture and communities and the music which was created during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Love and Resilience celebrates the collaboration between Casita Maria and six-time Grammy award winner Arturo O’Farrill that resulted in the formation of the nine-piece ensemble BronX BandA. Founded in the early days of the pandemic, the group adapted their performances to comply with COVID-19 regulations; the exhibition documents this fluidity. Ensemble members, all of whom are Bronx-based or work in the Bronx, began their journey together through ZOOM, rehearsing and composing new music remotely. Instead of performing in public spaces throughout the Bronx as originally planned, BronX BandA made their debut in a virtual livestream paired with a puppetry and narration by Redwing Blackbird Theater. From there, the group went on to play pop-up performances, record an album of original compositions at Sear Sound in Manhattan, film a documentary, and collaborate with Musicians from the New York Philharmonic.
Love and Resilience, the band’s new album and namesake of the exhibition, features 12 original compositions, 8 of which are inspired by the oral histories of Bronx cultural icons. Oral Historian Berta Jottar and Arturo O’Farrill collected life stories from jazz pianists Bertha Hope and Valerie Capers, Executive Director of En Foco Bill Aguado, tres player Nelson Gonzalez, folklorist Elena Martinez, and DJ Grandwizzard Theodore inventor of the scratch and the needle drop, transforming their memories into original jazz compositions. Excerpts from the oral history recordings dedicated to the Bronx are presented in the new exhibition. Featured videos include a documentary short by filmmaker Taylor Krauss of Render Circus that follows the band from January through June 2021, and a recording of their debut performance with Redwing Blackbird Theatre in collaboration with CultureHub. Photographs by Argenis Appolinario document BronX BandA’s story from August 2020 through June 2021. An interactive storytelling approach is provided through the coloring book, commissioned from Edgardo Miranda-Rodriguez, Sabrina Cintron of Somos Arte and BronX BandA spoken word artist Baba Israel.
The new album and accompanying coloring book will both be distributed to visitors for free while supplies last. The Bronx community are invited to an in-person celebration with DJ music by Grandwizzard Theodore in the Casita Maria Gallery on May 12, 2022 from 5:30-8pm.

As reported, Poe Park Visitor Center has reopened with limited programming. However, St. James Park Recreation Center is still damaged due to Storm Ida and has not yet reopened as of March 16, though it is also expected to happen some time in the spring. At all citywide Parks’ recreation centers, membership is now no longer free, but there are deals available for certain groups. See attached link for more information on membership fees: https://www.nycgovparks.org/rules/section-2-14.

Welcome to the Norwood News, a bi-weekly community newspaper that primarily serves the northwest Bronx communities of Norwood, Bedford Park, Fordham and University Heights. Through our Breaking Bronx blog, we focus on news and information for those neighborhoods, but aim to cover as much Bronx-related news as possible. Founded in 1988 by Mosholu Preservation Corporation, a not-for-profit affiliate of Montefiore Medical Center, the Norwood News began as a monthly and grew to a bi-weekly in 1994. In September 2003 the paper expanded to cover University Heights and now covers all the neighborhoods of Community District 7. The Norwood News exists to foster communication among citizens and organizations and to be a tool for neighborhood development efforts. The Norwood News runs the Bronx Youth Journalism Heard, a journalism training program for Bronx high school students. As you navigate this website, please let us know if you discover any glitches or if you have any suggestions. We’d love to hear from you. You can send e-mails to norwoodnews@norwoodnews.org or call us anytime (718) 324-4998.
