Patriots to Visit Trenton for Jamboree

The Christ Prep Patriots will travel to Trenton, Mo. Friday night to participate in a four-team pre-season jamboree. The jamboree begins at 6:00 p.m. at Trenton High's C.F. Russell Stadium and will afford the Patriots their first opportunity to scrimmage live against another opponent.

The jamboree format is essentially a series of round-robin scrimmages and will provide each team an opportunity to run 12 offensive and 12 defensive plays against three opponents. Besides Trenton, Chirst Prep will go against two other Missouri schools--Maysville and South Harrison (Bethany). South Harrison and Maysville are Missouri Class 1 schools while Trenton is a Missouri Class 2 school. Both South Harrison's and Trenton's mascots are the Bulldogs while the Maysville squad is known as the Wolverines. Trenton plays an independent schedule while the other two schools participate in Missouri's Grand River Conference.

Players and Families,




The Varsity Football team will be participating in a Football Jamboree on Friday, August 19th at C.F. Russell stadium in Trenton, MO. There will be locker rooms available, so we will meet at the school parking lot no later than 4:30pm. Warm-ups begin at 5:00pm with the jamboree starting at 6:00 pm with all 4 teams on the field. (see schedule below)



We will not be taking a bus since we have very low numbers and several families already live North of where we would meet to take a bus. Therefore, we will need to either carpool or arrive at Trenton High School on time (by 4:30pm) - at 5:00pm the team will be on the field and the locker room will not be available, so make sure you're there on time.



At this point, the Yankoviz have generously offered for the team to use their van for carpooling. Coach Mark is driving the van and you will need to contact him if you would like to ride in the van. Remember first come, first served.



Admission will be $1 for ages 6 and up, with NO PASSES excepted. Proceeds from the Jamboree will go to The Joplin High School Football Program. Concession stands will be provided by the THS Booster Club and the THS Band Boosters.



Jamboree Information:



Each team gets 12 offensive plays vs. their opponent, and will start from to 40 yard-line going to the endzone.

A touchdown or a failure to reach a first down will reset the ball to the 40. All 12 plays will be run consecutively.
