BATTLE OF THE BADGES 2023

On Saturday, July 15, 2023, the Rochdale Village Public Safety Department along with the Public Safety Committee held its 4th Annual Tarel Colemen Classic Battle of the Badges. A tournament which honors lifelong Rochdale Village resident and Firefighter Tarel Colemen with an objective to foster Community & Law Enforcement relationships. This year, the Hit Squad (pictured left) took first place and the Rochdale Rebels (pictured right) took second. In third place was the NYPD Finest team (not shown). It was a great tournament and a fun afternoon. Public Safety Committee Chair Khedda Hayden-Ryan pictured (far right) with both teams.
