Football Information

  • For the past 32 years, Big Sky Football has been very successful on and off the field.  Big Sky Football is one stepping stone to a well-rounded education.  Our belief is in hard work, commitment, to be unselfish and never quit.  “Our team will excel as a result of unit cohesiveness.  No member of our family is worth more than another. No member is worth less.  Believe in yourself, believe in each other.”  We also believe that these are essential qualities students will use to be successful in life.  Football is a NO CUT sport with many opportunities for participation. 

    Our coaching staff puts in many hours every week and throughout the year to help provide the best fundamentals and techniques.  The Freshman, Sophomore, and J.V. programs are to give every player playing time and to help them develop as a player and athlete.  Our goal in the three sub varsity levels is to help student athletes reach their potential as players and people.
