Heard from a reliable source that they only have about 18 showing up for Freshman football. If true, that is not a good sign for the future.

 

Not really a concern, I believe this freshman group only had about 14 kids or so as 6th graders at Turkeyfoot 3 years ago. Its just a small class, is what it is.

 

Yep. Every team cycles through big and small classes. The trip to the finals might have pulled a couple kids that were currently at Dixie, but will likely have little effect on numbers at the middle school level or with incoming freshman.

 

6th grade numbers at Turkeyfoot (and Woodland for that matter) aren't real good indicators of how big a class will be, as most 6th graders at those schools mostly play in the NKYFL.

 

Heard from a reliable source that Dixie probably will not field a frosh team this year. Numbers from last year's large school runner-up team at Turkeyfoot were small and looks like it's prevailing through to this year's 9th grade class. However, I was told this year's Turkeyfoot numbers are a lot better. When was the last time Dixie did not field a frosh team?

I am sorry to hear that, especially for the freshman that wanted to play. What is the plan for them?

SK or Scott?

Wow. If this is true about no frosh team this has to be the biggest school w/o a frosh team.

 

That's really, really surprising.

Not really. It was only a matter of time once middle school ball started. Dixie has gone through large cycles for years. A couple large classes followed by extremely small ones.

The 2014 Turkeyfoot class that would move on to Dixie's freshman football was very small last year.

Like uk#1fan posted, SK, Scott or move/pay tuition out of district, or enroll at CovCath.

The 2014 Turkeyfoot class that would move on to Dixie's freshman football was very small last year. Plus there are a few kids that were on the TF team last year that are not going to Dixie this year.

 

Like nees1212 indicated, it's cyclical and the numbers just caught up with them this time.

 

TF football numbers up this year I've been told.
