Arlington High Team Receives Equipment Grant

The Arlington High football team was recently awarded eight new helmets, worth $4,000.

The football team recently received a grant from USA Football for eight new Revolution Speed Helmets, according to Spy Ponders coach John Dubzinski.

Dubzinski, who wrote the grant application, said this is the second straight year his team has received the grant. It saves the town $4,000, he said.

“With concussions and player safety the big topic nowadays,” he said, “this grant will be a home run for our program.”
