They say football is big in Texas, and Fort Bend football is no exception. Each Friday night, stadiums across the county are on fire with Friday night lights, spirited fans and rough and tumble competitions.

In Sugar Land, Missouri City and Stafford, 13 high schools take to the fields fall Friday nights. The question on our minds at Fort Bend Focus as we dust off our stadium seats and wash our favorite jerseys is simple: “Are you ready for some football Fort Bend?”

David Roberts, Athletic Director and Head Football Coach at Fort Bend Christian Academy, said, “We are excited about the upcoming season. We have a chance to have a great season, and our players worked hard this summer lifting and running.”

Fort Bend ISD boasts 11 high schools, and their season looks equally as bright according to FBISD Deputy Superintendent Dr. Christie Whitbeck. “Football season signifies the beginning of an exciting year, not just for our football players and coaches, but for all of the groups that support this sport and share in their school pride. Our teams of players, band, dance, color guard and cheerleaders have been busy practicing and preparing for another competitive and fun fall in FBISD.”

The Stafford High School Spartans will play 10 games this season. “We have a very tough schedule this year,” said Athletic Director and Head Football Coach Ron Counter. “Our goal is to repeat as district champions and make a deep playoff run. With our talented and experienced senior class, this should be possible.”

Regardless of who you root for this fall, fans will have plenty of opportunities this season to enjoy the game close to home. To help you make it to your favorite team’s games, here are the 2016 High School Varsity Football Schedules for Fort Bend ISD, Stafford MSD and Fort Bend Christian Academy.
