Ford Fight for Life is a great night that defines what a great community Havertown is and it means so much to the football players when they are wearing their jersey for someone special in the community.
Frequently Asked Questions Below: .
- Who gets to keep the jersey? Who keeps the jersey will be up to the honoree. In many cases they say that the player can keep the jersey but more often than not the honoree will keep the jersey. If your honoree is unable to make it to the game, we will mail them their jersey.
- Who wears the Jersey? Varsity, JV players, and all managers (10th -12th grade) will wear the jersey during the game.
- Do the freshman jerseys get sponsored? Freshman jerseys do not get sponsored.
- Can you sponsor a Jersey in memory of someone who passes? Jerseys can absolutely be sponsored in memory of someone. Typically the family members of the person that passed is invited to the ceremony to accept the jersey.
- Can one honoree have more than one jersey sponsored for them? Absolutely. We have had multiple jerseys sponsored for the same honoree. The honoree will only need to walk once but would walk with more than one player. For example, last year Lily Walker walked with five players and received 5 jerseys at the end of the game.
What if the honoree cannot attend the game? That is fine. The sponsor can walk with the player and collect the jersey for the honoree and mail it to them.
