Marion Harris and Coach Johnson team up to take us inside our 3-3 draw with Galax ➕ News about Monday’s match with Alleghany !!

From Forrest :
I don’t have stats on jv but Jv played a great team game (5-0 victory) with multiple different players scoring or assisting. It was a big time win for them considering they lost to galax the first time playing each other.

Varsity had a hard fought 3-3 draw. Goals were scored by Davis Reitzel (2) and Alexis Ruiz (1). Assists by Yahir Ruiz, Oliver Lopez, and Davis Reitzel. The Varsity boys played their tails off and gave everything they had and we are very very proud of both teams

From a reporter stand point that loves good soccer, this was a fun back and forth game. Two teams battling it out. An intense rivalry that ended in a 3-3 tie. Both teams really left everything on the field and it was great to see the teams hugging and letting everything go at the final whistle!!! Good luck to both teams as they are getting ready for the postseason run!!!

Great youth night turnout and it was awesome to see theee of the players from our record setting 1999 Boys team!!!!

The term we like to use when we try something for the first time here in Carroll County is a Test Balloon 🎈.

This coming Monday night we are trying hard to test the theory of Sponsorship for a Night of Soccer ⚽️.

Both our Boys 👦 and Girls 👧 programs are playing on the Pitch at a High Level right now but are having trouble drawing fans to their Home matches.

One of the obvious issues is that eight other teams wearing our School 🏫 Colors are also competing during the Spring months.

There are four main reasons that someone might not attend a CCHS Soccer game –

#1- Already busy on that night 🌙

#2 – Don’t have a natural interest in the game of Soccer.

#3 – Don’t have an extra $7.00 per person to purchase tickets 🎟

#4 – Some combination of items 1-3

Forrest Johnson will be celebrating Senior Night 🌙 so here’s a chance to share in that ceremony

Eight good reasons right there !

The marketing tool we are trying to take out for a test spin in this –

Find a local group or business that would be interested in Sponsoring a game, which in turn would make the match free for all spectators. How does this work ? Said business, which Monday will be OneofUs.Care writes ✍ a check to the High School 🏫 to cover the approximated amount of gate receipts.

The sponsor would be the focal point the entire night 🌙 and would be encouraged to pass out information or free promo gifts 🎁.

They would receive a game ball to take home 🏡 with them at the end of the night 🌙. In a perfect World 🌎 there would be Spirit contests between the various teams and groups within the School with the top group receiving recognition for having the most members attending.

Our Girls 👧 Soccer team will be up at Alleghany that night and Baseball ⚾️ will be playing at home. But as of know everyone else will have the night off and don’t forget about all of the Coaches and Athletes from the Fall and Winter Sports… Here’s a chance to show School 🏫 Spirit without it costing anything but time.

Everyone out there who is part of a group that feels their group deserves a bit more acknowledging, here’s your chance to help out another group !

All you have to do Monday to be a part of this latest Test Balloon 🎈 is make it to Tommy Thompson Field before Halftime of the Junior Varsity match and admission is FREE!

The charge of the normal $7.00 will resume afterwards.

Forrest Johnson, Ben Tickle, Jeremy Pruitt and their Assistant Coaches have something to be proud of and let’s see 👀 if we can help showcase it for them all !

Six chances to root, root, root for our Cavaliers tonight with five of them taking place at Radford. Girls 👧 Soccer ⚽️(Battling Ben Tickles) have the run of The Hill tonight

We will be loading up the vehicles today as five of our teams will be heading to the Land of Bobcats.

  If you can’t make it up to Radford, the Battling Ben Tickles will be hosting the Lady Bobcats at Tommy Thompson Field beginning at 6pm !

  Notes 📝 – Jabin Talley will have to sit out of his Top Seed spot due to a lingering Blister.
