Happy New Year

Wishing all of you a Happy New Year and prosperous 2009. Make the most of every day.

Please add a couple of resolutions to your personal list as it relates to HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL DATABASE:

1) Dig up your old yearbooks, scrapbooks, newspaper clippings, etc. and submit old scores (and any other relevant information) to the site.

2) Please consider a donation to the site. There are many sites out there worthy of pouring money into (CoachT would be one of them), and this site also is one of them. Despite other sites' claims of "exclusive" information, I think you will find that the information provided at HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL DATABASE is fairly "exclusive" itself, with some scores, rosters, all-state teams, etc. that cannot be found anywhere else on the internet. Just keep up with the What's New page this month and you will see a glimpse of the breadth of exclusive data being provided.

To donate to the site, you can make your contribution here: Donate
