On May 14, 2016, Red Bank Regional (RBR) High School held its first football Alumni Game on the Count Basie field against Long Branch; thus, reuniting the oldest rivals in the Shore Conference.

Over 2,000 people attended the match, making it the most well-attended alumni game in recent history.

The game did not go well for the Buccaneers, who lost 24-0. However, the current and future RBR athletes were the true winners of the game, as $5,000 of the proceeds were donated to RBR for its new fitness room.

Jim Palumbo acknowledges that a second donation of $2,000 will also be made to the Athletic Youth Football organization from the games proceeds.

The thrilling 8-second rides and heart-stopping wrecks in PBR’s developmental league make the BlueDEF Tour one of the most exciting sporting events to see live.
