Patriot Football Families,

Friday night’s game against West Platte should be very exciting. West Platte is a 2A school like us and is a perennial state contender. They finished 2nd last year. This will be a great test for us, and we hope as many of our fans as possible can be there to cheer us on!
Please plan to arrive at West Platte High School NO LATER than 5:00 pm. We will have locker rooms to dress in. Our uniform will be white jerseys, blue pants, red belts, white socks, our usual away uniform.
West Platte HS is in Weston, MO, at 935 Washington Drive. From the south, get on I-29 North past KCI. Just north of Platte City get off on exit 20, the Rt. 273 Tracy exit. Go left (west on 273. At one point Rt. 45 joins 273. Take the combined road into Weston. Turn left (south) on Washington Drive. The school will be on your right. The field is behind the school, but you will have to drive several blocks past the school to get to the field, because the road to the field is one-way. There is parking next to the field.
Since West Platte is a public school, we cannot suit up our 6,7, and 8 graders. Please come wearing your jerseys.
We play again on Saturday at Shawnee Mission North at 1:00 pm against the Steelville community team. We want everyone to suit out for this game and we hope to get every player some playing time. This will be an 8-man game, and we will ask players to come an hour early on Saturday so we can get some 8-man practice in before the game. We look forward to a fun game, with lots of scoring, and everybody getting a chance to play.

Patriot Football Families,



This will be a very busy week for football! We will have our next home game this Saturday at 1:00 pm at Shawnee Mission North against Steelville, MO. This will be an 8-man game, and we hope to have our JV players get lots of playing time since the varsity plays the night before.


Please review the volunteer spreadsheet Mrs. Maloy sent out recently and sign up where you can. We have the opportunity to bless the folks from Steelville. They are very excited at the opportunity to play us at such a nice facility.


We also need of an announcer and music during the game. If you would like to be the voice of the Patriots this year, please let me know!


Thank you,


Coach Burton
