Freshman Football — What can you expect?

The freshman football team is run separately from JV and Varsity football — separate coaches, practices, games, summer camp.  Varsity/JV football activities typically do not include freshman players/families.  There are a few exceptions.  Team activities that INCLUDE freshman players & families:  weekly team dinners, mulch weekends, banquet, Discount Card fundraiser, varsity game off-the-field support, homecoming parade, and the golf outing.  The annual golf outing includes a dinner and silent auction.  Don't golf?  That's ok!  Come to the dinner/auction and get to know other West football families! (players typically do not attend the golf outing.)

General responsibilities of freshman football families:

• Team Dinners: freshman parents bring food & drinks to 2 (assigned) Thursday night team dinners

• Whippet Discount Cards: sell 10 discount cards - $200. OPTION: pay $200 up front and take 10 cards

• Fundraising participation (mulch weekends, etc)

• Varsity Game Night - 4 parents sell programs + 50/50 at gate up until halftime

• Freshman Game Day - 1 parent distribute post-game gatorade & snack (soft pretzels)
