Dear Football Families,
The OSAA is putting together a fun video/photo op idea together for the athletes and families, and to possibly win some gear. Please see the below info, from OSAA.
April 22, 2022
On behalf of the OSAA staff, I hope you are well and staying safe. There certainly have been many adjustments, from introducing distance learning to the loss of Spring activities. During this time, we want to foster community building, express hope, and encourage positivity for students, families, and the greater school community. To this end, we have created the #WeWillPlayAgain platform.
Today, tomorrow, next month, next year. #WeWillPlayAgain
We would like to encourage students, parents, teachers, and fans to participate in this initiative. On the OSAA Live mobile app, we have created #WeWillPlayAgain FanCam filters for everyone to show their school pride. They will have the ability to easily post them on their personal social media accounts. OSAA staff will then select the best pictures and send them OSAA Nike gear. The app is available for download in the Apple App Store or on Google Play. Direct links to download are also available here: http://www.osaa.org/app

Good Evening, Players and Parents -
Governor Brown has canceled school for the rest of the year, and we will be following the distance learning platform put forth by the ODE. The OSAA has also canceled all spring sports. Once I have my meeting with the OSAA Executive Board, we will be able to put a plan in place for this summer. Stay tuned for updated information, most likely within the next two weeks. In the meantime stay safe and healthy, and continue to exercise and workout as you can, by following social distancing platforms.
Coach Beck

Hello Grant Football Families!
Everything is up in the air at this time for all, but we hope everyone is safe and healthy! Coach Beck would like all parents and players to download the zoom app as soon as possible. It will be his best way of communicating with players and Parents. We will also have a chance to participate in anything the coaches have to report on. Coaches can also use this downtime to run workouts to be done at home or working on Football IQ and plays. Coach Beck would like to have everyone start figuring the app out and how it works, so it’s ready to roll when we need it. It is best downloaded on a computer but can also be seen on an iPad or phone.

Please let us know if your family has any needs that we might be able to help with (even if it’s toilet paper!) or to find help or resources for you. This is going to be a rough time for many and we need to do everything we can to care for our football family.
Stay safe,

Dear Grant Football Players:
First off we all need to remember that we all need to do our part by being socially responsible and to practice social-distancing to help curb the spread of the virus.
Secondly there are things you can do to try to keep Athletic gains many of you have made this year. Please see the list below for helpful ideas to help you and our program to progress even though we are not together:
Follow a 3-5 day a week workout routine while following social-distancing.
A: If possible contact Coach Melson to work with him on individual training and ideas.
B: If "A" is not possible and you will be doing your own workouts...please keep these things in mind. (Talk to a buddy or two about what your plan is...and what each of you are doing...this holds each other accountable and gives new training ideas to your teammates).
C. If doing your own program here are some ideas:
-1. Complete a warm up run...usually a good 400 meters.
-2. After warm up you need to complete a Dynamic stretch
-3. Your workout should incorporate upper body (I e. - pushups / pullups / bench dips / overhead press / etc) / Lower body (i.e. - lunges / step ups / Air squats / Hill running / etc.) / Explosion (i.e. - Burpies / Tuck Jumps / Rocket Jumps / squat jumps / etc) / Core
(I.e. - plank series / V ups / pelvic tilts / arch ups / etc) / Speed-Quickness (i.e. - short sprints 5-10-15-20's / jingle - jangle runs / shuffle - turn and sprint / etc.)
D. Watch HUDL: Film of upcoming opponents...do some scouting! / Get into the new Offensive Playbook - become familiar with formations - motions - schemes...reach out to Alex Grandjean with questions. / Review Defensive Playbook and ask questions to Coach Melson...he is working on some new things!
E. Save Money for online store and new cleats if needed...store opening soon.
F. Help by doing chores around the house...be a good student by reviewing your classes...even without being told to.
Special Note: When we get back together our off-season program may be different then it has in the past...but rest assured it will be the very best one that gives us every opportunity for success! By the way...talk to your spring sport teammates and support them...stay healthy - positive and respectful to everyone's needs. More information periodically.
If you have any questions please contact me,
Coach Beck

The Grant Football Board hopes this finds you all healthy and not completely bored or stressed on how to proceed forward in this unprecedented times. We are especially heartbroken for our players and especially the Seniors with the uncertainty that they must all be going through.
We wanted to give you a little bit of information that is relevant to moving forward and what players can be doing now to stay in shape. Some of our team sponsors are seeing tough times and we would love for our families to consider supporting them first with your dollars. With our partners and their generous support, we were able to forgo asking parents to raise the many funds needed to keep our players well equipped and well coached. Our restaurant Partners, NOHOS and Blind Onion are still doing take out from and could really use your business. By the way, NOHOS sponsored our PIL Football Champions Shirts for the boys to pick up from Coach Beck if they have not already. A big thanks to them!!
We would also like to mention that many in the community have contacted us, thinking we are having team practices on the field, and they are not happy about it. Although we are not holding practices, there are enough people on the field playing, they think that we are. We would like to remind players that there is a strict 10 person social limit and want neighbors to see the football team as good community partners. Although we have nothing to do with who is on the field and in the park, we would like our players to be safe and help others stay safe.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions at admin@friendsofgrantfootball.com
