Giving Back To The Community!
Shout-out to our players and families for their participation in the 2022 Home of Sparrow PA school supply drive. Our program raised money, budgeted wish list items, went shopping and dropped off the items.
Hi WCE Football Family!
I hope you are all enjoying your summer!
Thank you all for your generosity in our collection of school supplies for Home of the Sparrow! Coach will go shopping with some of the players this week and deliver the supplies!
Hope your boys enjoyed the Downingtown East camp – it sure was a hot one!
I just wanted to send out some reminders as we are coming down the home stretch before mandatory practices begin!
Mandatory practices start August 8th for 10-12th grade and August 15th for freshmen.
Reminders:
Registration – All players must be registered on BOTH the WCE football website at http://www.wceastfootball.com/forms/11440-Player-Registration AND on Family ID at https://hello.familyid.com/
Booster Dues – All players need to pay the WCE Booster fee of $175 payable by check made to WCE Football Boosters or Venmo @WCEFootball. This fee must be paid for the players to get their compression shirt which they will need for mandatory practices and pregame warmups.
PIAA Physicals – All players MUST have a PIAA Physical dated after June 1st and loaded into your Family ID account by August 7th (10-12th graders) and August 14th (9th graders).

Family Tailgate – August 20th after the Scrimmage – Keep an eye out for the Sign Up Genius for this great event!
Team Dinners – keep an eye out for a Sign Up Genius for Team Dinner items (pasta, salad, bread, desserts, etc) These are generally the Thursdays before home games. Our first one is August 25th.

On April 14th, 25 our our players spent the morning at the Melton Center in West Chester preparing their community garden alongside the Greater WC Sun Rotary. Awesome day of service filled with lots of mulch, top soil, shoveling, raking, and some hoops to end the day. Nice work fellas!!
