Sabine Pass has canceled their 2021 season

[AggiesAreWe]

Sabine Pass will not field a football team this season. All the games scheduled for the rest of the season has been canceled.

It's my understanding that SP's district games will result in forfeits.

Didn’t want to take away or interfere from the UIL one-act play season?

[navydawg31]

Haven’t they done this before if my memory serves me correct.

[Chester86]

Yes sir, they have.

[Uncle Pig]

Time to flush this program down the toilet forever 

[88Warrior]

Got to feel for the kids there that want to play…I just don’t see a way they can be a viable program any longer…

[Chester86]

They should have made a move to 6-man a long time ago.

Problem with that is not enough local teams play 6 man to have a local district. Would be too much travel for a school that far south. Reason why High Island went back to 11 man football.

Historically they have been in district with Chester and Apple Springs many times.....

With other local 11 man teams.

If Sabine Pass were to go the 6 man route, they would be a 1A DI school. Chester and Apple Springs are currently DII. In fact, that is our only UIL 6man district (13 1A-DII) we currently have here locally.

So sorry for the kiddos

They should still make the move to sixman and just deal with the travel. It’s not as bad as you think. They need to do whatever needs to be done to field a football program and sustain it.

Do they have the enrollment to play six-man or would they have to do outlaw?

I think they are just above the threshold.

It would have to be outlaw right now.

My cousin was a cheerleader there, she quit her senior year because there’s nothing for cheerleaders to do because the football team keeps getting canceled.  
They never have a problem fielding a baseball or basketball team there.  Seems like it should be easy to figure out what the problem with the football team is…….

Wouldn't mind a few transfers off their squad.

No clue what they got on this year's team, but we've gotten transfers from them before.

Actually many SP students are from PAISD  and maybe others. 

SP sends school buses to the intracoastal canal bridge between PA and SP (which is all actually PA) in the mornings and afternoons. Parents who want their children to go to school in SP (and don’t feel like driving the extra couple of miles) drop their kids off at the buses under the bridge in the mornings and pick them up at the same place in the evening after school.
