Statement Regarding Week 1 Football Game

Due to a recent increase in student-athletes unavailable to compete, including one entire position group, Lebanon Football is unable to play Friday night at Springboro. While no players are COVID-positive at this time, several football student-athletes are in quarantine due to contact tracing (per the Health Department).

The JV game on Saturday is also cancelled. The freshmen game will still be played.

It is very disappointing that we will not be opening our 2021 season this Friday. Our heart goes out first and foremost to all of the Lebanon and Springboro student-athletes who have been through so much since the pandemic began and worked so hard under difficult circumstances to prepare themselves to perform. They have done so well following protocols, but as we are finding out first-hand, playing football during this time continues to be a fragile situation.

As always, the health, safety and welfare of our student-athletes, coaches and staff is our number one priority.
