A message from Head Coach Steve Erato
The City of Madison is rich in high school football tradition. Madison East is a big part of that tradition as we hold 29 City Championships, 10 Conference Championships, and 5 Playoff appearances. The 2014 season is shaping up to be a bright one for the Purgolders. The young men in our program are committed to carrying on the traditions that have been started for them by such great football alumnus as Pat Richter, Greg Mattison and Donald Hayes, to name a few. Our athletes are working harder than ever in the classroom, community, and weight room to help better themselves and become well-rounded individuals. We could not be more proud of them!
Best,
Steve Erato

How you can help Madison East Football
Our football program is in need of new uniforms. Each level in our program, excluding the Varsity, has hand me down uniforms that are as old as 15 years. Being able to compete with the teams is hard enough, and to trying compete psychologically, while wearing worn out uniforms, is even more difficult. We want our athletes to have the best and feel good about their hard work. The resources in our program are scarce. Budgets are getting slashed each year and our athletes suffer. Our administration stretches themselves as far as they can with funding. Unfortunately, it is not enough.. The large majority of our program's funding continues to be generated from the players, parents, and the support and generosity within the community.
Your generous donation will help provide our players and coaches with the support needed to develop a strong, disciplined program with young men of character, integrity, and pride, as well as fund our general regular season expenditures.
Thank you for your support,

A Message From Zach Zilm
Madison East football players got together created a fundraising page to send out to our family and friends. I also want to send it to the special people in my life, so, I am including you.
Our fundraising goal is to help cover the cost new uniforms as well as our in-season costs. We have been challenged by our coaches to raise $200, but my personal goal is to raise more! If you would be willing to help me by donating any amount, I would really appreciate it. I will keep you posted on how my team and I are doing as we continue through our season. Thanks again and hopefully you will be able to come out and see us play this fall as we work "together as one" toward a common goal!
Once again, thank you so much for supporting us!
