The future of CG football was on the field this morning. Absolutely beautiful. Back in the day I'd go watch the state games with my dad and cousins from IL; I'd study the game program front to back as soon as we got to our seats and be in awe of the sheer numbers those 5A (now 6A) schools had on their rosters.

This is not 1950 where they can ride or walk across small little town and meet up with each other. I would say for some of the kids this is only time they will really see each other.

The only time kids see each other is for tightly organized athletic events run by adults. Sad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I LOVE watching the football products the Indy area 6As can put on the field....but for me personally (and I say this in full view of the sun that we each set different priorities in life and I don't judge anyone for thiers)...I will flip burgers before I move to one of those communities. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Center Grove (White River Township) is not one of "those" communities. Its a very special and unique place. One that breeds success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grover Posted June 9, 2021 Author Share Posted June 9, 2021 Agreed, Jon. Best part is that Coach Moore attends and talks to both teams after the game. I also love how many high school players attend. If you haven't yet make sure to check out a home game for the Jr. Trojans. In the famous words of John "Bluto" Blutarsky..."don't cost nothin".

Trojanmp52 Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 30 minutes ago, Jon said: I move to the Center Grove area a little over 11 years ago. My fist experience with CG football culture was when my 6th grade daughter ask me if I would take her to a middle school football game. I was shocked I did not know that my daughter even knew what a football look like. So I find out that it is the two middle school in CG school corporation playing each other. It is called North vs Central game and it is played at the high school. So I arrive at the game and can't believe the crowd size 2000+ and the atmosphere was great. Had so much fun that I decided I should try a high school game. CG Friday nights football took it to another level and I was hooked. For past 10 years I have attended almost all home and away games. This is just one example that makes up CG culture. A few other things about cultural with this game. The week of the game the high players are jokingly taking trash to each other about when played in the game and about this years game. During the game the varsity players will stand on the side lines of the school they play for a cheer them on just if pro’s come back to their college they played at. And here is a big thing in my opinion Coach Moore is their and after the game he both 8 grade teams come together and talks to them. The biggest thing he teams them is that they are no longer two teams but on family Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It broadcast CG vs pike game on a big screen that they set up at the bantam field. Just another example of CG culture!

Just imagine you’re responsible for generating alumni donations at a big university … and your grads include a Gates-type guy. How much easier did your job just get?
