Football
by Anthony Johnson
Gage Park football team is a diverse, dedicated group of young men whose goal is to work hard and have fun. To be a part of this team, one would have to get a complete physical and bring the form to the coach. Once an individual has been accepted, he will begin strenuous training. Training usually begins in mid summer and lasts 4 1/2 hours Monday-Thursday.
The training helps the athletes to endure tackles from opposing teams and improve their speeds. Practice games are also apart of the training. The practice games help the athletes prepare for the actual games. The athletes play three practice games before they go on to play the Conference games to win first place in the district. If Gage Park wins the Homecoming game, the athletes are automatically qualified to go to the playoffs.
