Lake & Sumter County Spring High School Football Schedule
All the schedules are pretty much in place. We are just officially waiting on a few game times to be announced. But down below you will find the schedule of each school and what the plans are for May. There are a few schools who take part in Jamboree sessions. These are simulated game situations that teams could find themselves in during the regular season. There are usually 3 or 4 teams that take part in a Jamboree session. The teams rotate to give each a taste of offense and defense during situation football. All games that are not Jamboree sessions are traditional high school football games.
