Fan Expectations: We want to take a moment and remind all Blue Ace fans of the expectations set forth by OHSAA and the District when attending events.
Blue Time Games
A couple of out student athletes are working on a 20 time project for their SDL English class. They are focusing on increasing student attendance at athletic events. They held a powder puff game a few weeks ago to raise money for incentives and out Granville Athletic Boosters have graciously offered to offset some of the ticket costs. Please read below for more information.
Blue time is a program aiming to promote more student attendance at Granville athletic events on school grounds. Starting in the winter 24/25 season each team will select a game/match/meet that they want increased attendance at. That event will be a “Blue Time Game” where students will receive free admission and a chance to win gift cards if they wear their Blue Time shirt. The more "Blue Time games" you attend, the better the chance of winning the big end of year “Blue Time Prize.” To receive free attendance and enter the gift card raffle at the selected events you must wear your Blue time shirt or purchase a shirt at the door. Event dates will be posted on Instagram so be sure to follow. Let’s support fellow student athletes!!
Please Welcome our New Boys Lacrosse Coach
