Submitting News Articles
The purpose of publishing stories in the Ridgefield Press is to give every child a sense of achievement. Each child has something to offer, be it perseverance, spirit, a great pass, or a smart play. Each player should be mentioned at least once during the season; many coaches try to include each child in each writeup.
