This starts each football season off on the right foot. The Pirates are ready to take on any team after this intense training session in Jackson.<br> In 1998 the San Leandro Pirates were ready for battle. They had been training intensely on the BFS system. They had prepared and fulfilled all the requirements to become champions. They were ready to go-fight-win and that is exactly what they did. Their defense was an offense s worst nightmare. This lethal force rose to the top and was labeled as the #1 defense in all of Northern California. They physically punished their opponents and finished the regular season with an astounding 9-1 record. The Pirates best game of the season came when they did battle with their arch-rivals Bishop O Dowd. Bishop O Dowd had been unefeated for the last four years since they ve been in the HAAL Leagu. To make things more exciting it was their homecoming. The Pirates strapped on their helmets and came to town to take care of business the old-fashioned way. On the opening kickoff, San Leandro fielded the ball at the 20- yard line and ran it all the way back for an 80-yard touchdown. The rest of the game was history as San Leandro crashed Bishop O Dowds Homecoming and brought their 19-0 winning streak to a screeching halt. What a victory! <br>The Pirates went on to the playoffs but lost a nail biter to Castro Valley. Then Bishop O Dowd returned with a vengeance to put them out in the semi-finals. Although the Pirates lost in the semi-finals, they were still labeled the Hayword Area Athletic League Champions. Six players were named All-League and inside linebacker Mike Smith was named Defensive Player of the Year. <br>Coach Calcagno says he has really been blessed. Sn Leandro had not been to the playoffs in eight years and had not won league since 1987. Just three years after taking over a desolate program and incorporating the BFS system, he led the Pirates to a 9-1 record and an HAAL Championship Title. Quite the turn around for the former Pirate himself.<br>When discussing the keys for turning this losing tradition around, Coach Calcagno replied,  On the BFS system the kids are able to see their results as they keep track of sets & reps. This gives them motivati
