Whitnall Middle School Football Fields will be alive Saturday, August 15, 2015 with over 25 AAYFL youth football teams coming to town for the Whitnall “Hit It!” Scrimmage 2014. This event has become one of – if not Southeastern Wisconsin’s largest youth football scrimmages with 7 different schools represented from the area.

“They go head-to-head for 30 minutes, 15 minutes on offense then 15 on defense usually and coaches have access to the field to make the most of all teaching opportunities.” Hausch said
Pack a few lawn chairs and get ready for some football:
You’ll see a few locally interesting match-ups at the 8th grade level as Greenfield vs. Hamilton and Whitnall vs. Muskego should provide some insight as to the futures of these programs and local rivalries.
If you love football at any level, this is a great day to grab the kids, the grandparents and get out to Whitnall Middle School, 5025 South 116th Street.
Full Concession Stand and T-shirts sales will be available starting at 8:00 a.m. - please refrain from carry-ins as this is Whitnall Youth Football & Cheers largest fundraising event of the year.
