Junior High and High School Families
Dear NOAH Football Families,
We have started off our season with a bang in Springfield and as we enjoy cheering on our jag teams we wanted to remind our jag fans of a few things. We had a few issues brought to our attention at the Springfield game that we need to address. We are asking our parents to help us with the task of keeping every one off of the football field. If you are not a part of the team or a support person for the team that is scheduled to play on the field then you should not be on the field at any time unless you are invited for a half time participation etc.
During the Springfield game I witnessed a game referee ask one of our coaches to have a group of teenagers move away from the field and then the referee himself asked another group of teenagers to move away from the football field. Please speak with your children so that they understand that they should not play near the field. Our referees, coaches and team support staff should not have to concern themselves with these type of issues. This should be our responsibility as parents to make that our children understand what is allowed and what is not.
Please do not let your children climb on any structures at the fields. At the Springfield game it was brought to my attention that children were climbing up the back of the bleachers. This is a huge safety issue and we don’t want to have a child injured when it could be so easily prevented. As we represent first Jesus Christ, second the NOAH organization and third our individual families we want to respect other organizations property and authority.
We have moved our junior high and junior varsity games to a new location this year. I hope you were able to read the announcement on the football blog. One of the drawbacks of the new field is the lack of space between the field and the fence that encloses the field area. There is only about a thirty foot area for our team to stand and for our spectators to access the bleachers. It will be imperative to help us keep our fans away from the football field so that we won’t have any accidents. There are several areas outside of the fenced football field that the children can throw a football and play.
Thank You,
Danae Fayard and the NOAH football leadership
