3-1 L to @nWo4LifeFC. Good luck to them in the finals next week, well deserved win. A season of what ifs but still an unforgettable one. Big thank you to @OfficialBDSL for another great season, RBU will be back stronger than ever in 2026. #RBU4Ever#Family
Another chapter gets written in the RBU-NWO rivalry today. This time with championship Sunday and potential promotion implications. One will fall, one advances, last man standing match.
@BangarangBDSL Appreciate the high praise! You guys showed us the way, a perfect mix of adding talents but still keeping a great culture. These trophies are great but hard not to miss RBU and Bangarang in west Seneca battling for 8th place 🤙🏻
@bflonight@_Sharpshooters@OfficialBDSL Man, from fist fighting us in the Matthews Cup in 2023 to now Wood Cup Champs, that’s growth right there, well done boys 🫡
Would’ve been so easy to chalk the season up but when setbacks happen, you either stay down or you get up. Rust Belt always gets up, no matter the odds. Shoutout to Sean who teamed with Ian and wanted this one badly. What a run, more work to do, still so proud of this team.
Heritage. Legacy. Family. It’s what the Matthews Cup is all about. The Reds are a hell of a team and played with extreme heart. Honored and privileged to be Matthews Cup champions. #Family
Matthews Cup Final
@RustBeltBDSL v @WNYUnitedSC
Despite both teams long standing in BDSL this is only the 2nd ever meeting between the clubs with the 1st time being a 2023 1-0 OT Matthews Cup Quarterfinal win for Rust Belt.
This is both clubs first ever Matthews Cup Final.
2-0 W vs @celticclassic92. Always a great time playing them, classy team. RBU are in a cup final for the first time in club history. #RBUvsTheWorld
