Football on EA Day. Everyone loves the autumn breeze and leaves falling with a hint of sweat and eye black.
This is it.
The season finale.
It is a privilege to play in one of the most exciting rivalries, which dates back to the late 1800s. Since I watched our team from the sideline my Third Form year, I couldn’t wait to be out there to represent the maroon and gold.
Everything would be worth it.

All the eyes on me wearing the uniform makes me proud to be a Ford. I’ve been here since Kindergarten, and I’ve been to every football game that we’ve played against EA. We’ve had some big-time moments occur and others, not so much. To get this opportunity to play against rivals in front of friends, family, and other relatives makes me realize how blessed I am to go to this school. I appreciate everything this school has done for me.
Although having the game away is going to be mentally challenging, I love these moments too: to get to go over their place and raise the sweater and possibly the Inter-Ac trophy—the cherry on top.
Everything would be worth it.
Beat EA. Roll Fords.
