The Cherokee County School District’s high school football program will soon host its Second Annual CCSD Senior Bowl.

This year’s event will be held on Thursday, Dec. 17 at Cherokee High School. Varsity Brand Sports will serve as the game’s title sponsor.

The Varsity Brand Sports CCSD Senior Bowl game, like the 2014 inaugural match, will honor senior football players, cheerleaders, marching band members and Junior ROTC cadets, while providing the community with an exciting event to celebrate the end of the season.

The game begins at 7 p.m. at Cherokee High School’s stadium, with pre-game activities starting at 6 p.m. Tickets are $5 and may be purchased in advance or at the gate; proceeds from advance ticket sales will benefit the high school that sells them.

Senior football players from all six district high schools will gather at River Ridge High School at 9 a.m. Dec. 12 for the CCSD Senior Bowl Draft Breakfast, at which time head coaches will announce their teams and sponsors will be recognized.

Sequoyah High School Head Coach James Teter will coach the Red Team and Woodstock High School Head Coach Brent Budde will coach the White Team.

“We are so appreciative to Varsity Brand Sports and other sponsors for supporting this wonderful event, which gives our seniors a night in the spotlight and a final opportunity to be a part of a high school football game,” said Superintendent of Schools Dr. Frank Petruzielo. “This event recognizes the outstanding talent of our senior football players, cheerleaders, marching band musicians and Junior ROTC cadets…and the hard work they have put into their careers so far. The Senior Bowl also pays tribute to the support given to them by their teachers, coaches, directors, boosters, parents and families.”
