Parents and Players,

Our coaches and athletes are so excited to have started Spring Football. The athletes have been working extremely hard since December to make the 2022 football season a success.  Spring Football and Summer SAC Camp are the last two important steps in our preparation for August. Spring is a great time for the players to get fully ingrained in our systems of play and to showcase their skills after months of hard work. 

Please remember that Spring Football practices are mandatory and absences should be communicated in advance when possible. As always, we will be working with our players currently involved in other programs at Stratford. We will be lifting and watching film during the athletic period so that players can leave as soon as after school practice ends. Practices are from 3:30 - 5:30 pm, but we may finish a little earlier on some days.

We will conclude Spring Football with the Spring Game at Tully Stadium on Thursday, May 12th. Sub-Varsity will play at 5:30 pm, and Varsity will play at 6:30 pm. Our Spring Football calendar and several other reminders are listed below. 

Coach Rankin

• If you are purchasing new cleats for the fall, we ask players to stay with mostly black, white, or green cleats. Players need to wear black or white socks for practice. Players need to check with their coach before purchasing any extra equipment, such as visors, sleeves, etc.
•  
• We will provide Guardian Caps to wear at practice this spring.  This is a soft-shell helmet covering that aids in impact reduction.
• For players wanting to purchase their own helmet, we can provide the number to our Riddell representative.
•  
• All communication will go through our SportsYou App.
