FALCON

NATION

Imagine walking into the building on the first day of school and hearing the announcement, "THERE WILL BE

NO SPORTS TEAMS THIS YEAR." Can you imagine the shock, the devastation, the pandemonium and consequence? Luckily that won't happen. The sports programs are safe and secure.

What people love most about high school sports is how one team can capture the passion of an entire community and help everyone feel a sense of togetherness. For some, this may mean beating an opponent that has developed into a rival over the years. Much like the one between Pebblebrook High and South Cobb High. For others, it may simply mean enjoying a Friday night with

friends and family from the community enjoying the festivities of a football, basketball or soccer game.

High school sports have a way of strengthening communities through the spirit of the game.

Players and fans become one, unified force to represent their community.

So turn on the lights and let the games begin. The Cheerleaders, the band, the fans, the athletes. These are all important bodies that make up the Pebblebrook Falcon Nation.
