Greeley football review follows canceled games and JV-varsity combination

What happened

The district has canceled its last two C-team football games and combined the JV team with varsity this season, and has begun an outside review of the football program. The Tri-States review is planned for mid-December, with findings expected at the first January board meeting; the superintendent said the district remains committed to football, and no broader program change has been decided.

Why it matters to families

Football players have already experienced fewer team-level opportunities this season. The review may inform future decisions, but the district has not announced a change to the program.

The evidence

At the Oct. 28 meeting, the superintendent said the district canceled its last two C-team games and combined JV with varsity in September. The district is gathering data for a Tri-States review that will include input from families; the superintendent anticipated presenting findings at the first January board meeting and said decisions would follow later recommendations. The transcript gives conflicting dates for the review visit (Dec. 16 and Dec. 18), so this alert describes it as mid-December.
