Galesburg-Augusta Community Schools

G-A Community and Potential Football Players

Football practice is set to begin on Monday, August 10. Practice will start promptly at 3 p.m. Prior to practice, each student will get a temperature check and asked a few short questions about their health. Therefore, the student/athlete should arrive to the school 15-20 minutes prior to the start of practices to ensure everyone gets through the line before practice begins.

Our focus is to have a Junior Varsity team and a Varsity team. There is a new 5th quarter rule this year, which allows players to play 5 quarters of football a week between both levels, excluding seniors. This rule will ensure us that we will be viable for two teams.

For the full football season calendar and information regarding G-A Football, you may go to www.gafootball.net. We hope to see everyone Monday August 10th.

Stay safe and healthy. Go Rams!!

Yesterday the Representative Council of the Michigan High School Athletic Association approved the next steps in returning sports for member schools, adopting a plan to phase in competition for Fall sports in hopes of continuing to deter the spread of COVID-19.

The MHSAA will continue to be nimble and flexible in these uncertain times. The Council will be meeting regularly and we will continue to provide updates and possible modifications based on the most current information, directives from state government and health department officials and member school feedback.

The Michigan High School Athletic Association has relaxed the athletic physical requirement needed to participate in school sports for the 2020-21 school year. Student-athletes that had a valid physical on file last year can use that physical again this year, as long as the REQUIRED Health Questionnaire is completed. Please use the link below to access the questionnaire. https://swmitech-my.sharepoint.com/:b:/g/personal/michael_woodard_garams_org/EUQiRx7cyI5FnDiv7Kp4IREBf1_mp3ZSxocEedMdQWiBFA?e=acAy9D
