The battle for excellence has begun for the 2009 Norwin Knight Football season.
Camp officially under way, with temperatures reaching the high 90's the first week, didn't deter our Knights. The players reported to camp bright and early each morning, having sessions both in the morning and afternoon.
The Norwin Football Boosters provided the players, coaches, trainers, and managers with a delicious lunch complete with nutrition and a little bit of sugar...which never hurts. Hats off to Mrs. Heidi Waugaman for putting together a wonderful menu, and making sure there was plenty for everyone.
Camp also put into place, the team captains; Tyler Lukart, Justin Merlin, Joel DeFelice and Seth Austin, hopeful to lead our Knights onto the field of battle for a successful season in 2009.
Kudos to Lisa Marghella for organizing another successful Norwin Knight tradition, with our annual Kick-Off Picnic held on August 22nd. The picnic is held after the first home scrimmage. This year the team came up against North Hills, where the Knights showed they are hungry for that starting position.
The team heads off to Baldwin on August 28th to face the second scrimmage of the season, where the competition will continue to show, as they prepare themselves for the season opener at Seneca Valley on September 5th.
Norwin Football Boosters meetings are held the 2nd Thursday of the month in room 139 at 7:30pm. The boosters are a GREAT way to show your support for the team, both on and off the field. So come, and get involved!!! It's never too late.
