Pink socksIn recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness month for the month of October, the West Branch football team will be altering their game-day uniforms.

Both the JV and Varsity teams will be sporting pink and black socks for the entire month of October. The socks will feature a large pink ribbon design on top of black material that players will wear on the field on game nights.

The 2018 squad is continuing a wonderful tradition which started several years ago. The West Branch Football program has been directly affected by Breast Cancer, whether through players or staff members, and this serves as a celebration for those who beat it and a memorial for those who lost the battle.

A big thank you to the Captains' parents for organizing this great recognition.
