We are thrilled to announce that as part of this year’s Homecoming celebrations, we are bringing back: Flag Football!

What is Flag Football?
Flag Football is a friendly game where the roles are reversed—our female students get to take the field as players, while male students cheerleaders/fans. It’s a great way for students to showcase their school spirit and sportsmanship in a fun and inclusive environment.

Event Details:

• Date: October 3
• Time: 6:00 PM
• Location: Larry Dale Field
  
  

We encourage all students to participate, either as players, cheerleaders, or enthusiastic supporters in the stands. This is a fantastic opportunity to come together, enjoy some friendly competition, and celebrate our school spirit leading up to the big Homecoming game.

We look forward to seeing you at the game and cheering on our students as they bring this tradition back to life!

Remember:

• Each team (class) may have a maximum of 15 players
• All fans must be in the stands. Only players are allowed to be on the field
• No rough play is allowed.

On Friday, Oct. 4, students will be released at 1:40pm to go to our WHS Pep Assembly and Class Games that will be held on Larry Dale Field. The parade will follow the assembly.

*This pep rally is not open to the public.

Relay Race, Tug of War, Egg Toss, Spirit Stick, and Fall Sports Assembly takes place Friday, October 4th at approximately 1:45 p.m. Fall sports teams are announced, the court introduced, the announcement of the Grand Marshall and the class competition for the spirit stick will take place.

WHS will have its parade on Friday, Oct. 4. We will exit the WHS Circle Drive at approximately 2:45pm. All clubs, sports, court members and class floats move through the square-celebrating Homecoming.

Parade route: We will make our way east on South Street towards the Woodstock Square and return back to WHS. Please feel free to walk down and join us.
