8th Grade Football


Welcome to the 8th grade Union Football Program.
 
2010 Parents Letter

It is my contention that football and other sports are a wonderful tool for education. The Union Football Program will be educational and we will strive to reach our intended goal of producing great young men.

We will demand a commitment to excellence and to winning, not only in football, but in every endeavor in life. Our players will learn that the challenge of being among the best is a continual pursuit of excellence.

Winning is extremely important but it must be accomplished with integrity, poise, and class. Winning will be accomplished by building good people.
Live Like a Champion!
