it may seem a lil late but i just found this site, and i would liek to say that
Frank was the best football coach i ever had he was strict yet loose he taught
us the basics of football and never got too facy. Frank will be in my heart
till the day i die and i will never forget him, my most fond memory of frank
was back in 1997 when our stinger b-team won the NAJFL, SUPER BOWL, i looked
at Frank and could tell it was one of the most proud days of his life, the day
i heard he had passed i couldnt help but break down. So coach Hudacek i would
like to say on behalf of the b-team of '97 and myself you will be greatly missed
and were liek a second father to most of us you were one of the greatest men
i have and ever will meet, so coach R.I.P and take it easy on the playas up
there, with much love justin stevens

I am sorry I could not be at the services for Frank, as I was in NY for work.
I remember the first time I met Frank, I was an fresh assistant B coach, my
head coach was not at the game, and I only had 11 players. After a long patient
wait on Franks part, he suggested we play 9 man ball. The ref's told us it was
against the reg's (at that time), and wouldn't go for it. He argued for both
teams that they were kids who came to play Football, and they should be allowed
to have their game. Well, we ultimately lost that fight and I had to forfiet.
Then, Frank promptly sent the refs to the concession stand, since the A-team
wasn't even there yet, and said " These kids came to play ball, so by God
lets play!" and we did. Had the first non-official 9-man game I can remember,
and had a blast doing it! The refs were fit to be tied! Now there's a man who
loved the kids as much as he loved the game. Godspeed Frank, I will never forget
you! Phil

I'm sorry to hear for the loss of the Hudecek Family, and his close friends.
