East Ridge High School Football Field North Stands Condemned; Next Home Game To Be Moved

  • Saturday, August 29, 2015

The main stands at the East Ridge High School football stadium have been condemned.

The field was being used for pee wee football on Saturday, but the north section was roped off for safety purposes.

Fans at the games were watching from metal bleachers on the opposite side.

Officials said some fans had complained about the condition of the old concrete facility, including cracked and broken sections and gaps.

When inspectors examined the condition of the stands, they were shut down.

East Ridge, which has won its first two games, was due to have a home game against Signal Mountain High School next Friday night.

That game will be moved to Baylor School.
