Steve Matthews To Concord Christian School

They’re building something special there. They have 4 Varsity games scheduled & 5 JV. They are trying for a 5th Varsity game. Beat them now because they will be good in the future. They are building a football field there I think but the rich pricks of Farragut won’t let them get lights so they are possibly looking at property to build a stadium & field with lights

What teams are on the schedule? Will they be in a private school, Division 2 region?

I can’t believe they’re not playing any division games, especially since they are in Division II-A East. It looks like most of the teams there have already made their schedules, unfortunately. I don’t know if they were just late to the party or if no one really wanted to play them. I’m sure they’re going to find another out-of-state team. I don’t know if it’s possible, but last year their varsity team took on Bearden’s junior varsity team, and it counted as a varsity game for them. I wonder if they would do something like that.

Also, they have a pretty solid team for what it is. They got a lot of additions during the off-season. I mean it’s a young team, but they still have a few seniors.

People are reluctant to play them as Concord, Pickett.Co & Hancock. Co are on attempt 101 to restart football. I wish all 3 the best of luck

From what I gather, they are only playing a JV schedule this season and next year a full D-II East class A schedule. I was told that they are investing a lot financially into the football program at Concord.

I’ve heard those rumors too. There has been a lot of money sitting for a while, ready to be used for the athletic department. It’s a very cramped campus with not a lot of space, the majority of space is parking. However, I’m sure they could somehow create a turf football field for the soccer team to play on, and maybe build a baseball and softball field where the old soccer field was. But I don’t know. I’m sure they’ll figure something out if they have to purchase more space.

Farragut does not like them & the nearby residents do not want them playing football at night at Concord so they are looking to purchase land elsewhere for their football stadium

I mean, yeah, I know the residents had an issue with it, but what really can they do? If they do buy land elsewhere, that will be interesting. I wonder how far it will be from the campus. Eventually, they moved the school off the church grounds, which I know the school is expanding every year, so eventually they’re going to have to do something.
