The Abilene Ruff Riders are pleased to announce the resigning of RB/LB Trae Ivory and QB Larry Dockery. Dockery and Ivory were key contributors to the 2010 Ruff Riders and are pleased to be back for the 2011 season. Ivory was a starting LB for the Ruff Riders to start the season than switched to running back later in the year. Ivory pulled off the rare feat of being the leading tackler as well as the leading rusher for the Ruff Riders during 2010. Before joining the Ruff Riders, Ivory has had an illustrious indoor football career playing all over Texas including the Lubbock Renegades as well as the San Angelo Stampede Express.

Dockery was the backup quarterback for the Ruff Riders last season and will be competing with Joe Brennan for the starting position. Though Dockery did not get much time on the field last season, he is an exciting talent that should be a star indoor player in the near future. When asked about the resigning of Ivory and Dockery, general manager Brett Quigley had this to say, "I can't begin to explain how excited we are to have Trae and Larry back. These are two great players as well as two great young men. There effort on the field is only surpassed by their belief about giving back to the Abilene community. These are two players who I am proud to continue to call Abilene Ruff Riders.”

The Abilene Ruff Riders 2011 season kicks off on March 12. Season Tickets are as low as $35 per seat for the entire season. For season tickets or to become a valued partner in a soon to become championship winning SIFL franchise call (325) 677-7277.
