When thinking of Sidney Warriors football, the image of mud covered players who's team colors and uniform numbers are indistinguishable.  The Sidney "Mud Bowl" as it affectionately became known would look more brown than green after the first quarter, especially on a rainy and wet Friday night.  But those days are a thing of the past as the Warriors will open the season in a brand new stadium.

The new complex not only features a synthetic turf field which will allow coaches to breathe a sigh of relief, not to mention the ease that parents will have in trying to keep the whites white in the wash!  It also features a new video scoreboard.

For the seniors this year is shaping up to be a year to remember, not only for the new stadium, but for the chance to get the Sidney program back to the days of the 2005 State Champs.  While this year's team is relatively young and inexperienced, this year's seniors are looking to help improve on last year's 4-3 regular season, while at the same time teaching the younger students for the future.

The Warriors break in their new stadium in week one as they host Unatego and try to revenge a 32-30 loss in week two of last year.
