The Gridiron Gang Award is presented to an individual or family whose spirit of generosity, hospitality, and support extends far beyond the sidelines. This honor recognizes those who go above and beyond to make the Forester Football family experience exceptional—whether through their dedication to organizing and enhancing team tailgates, creating a welcoming atmosphere for players, families, and fans, or through their unwavering support of the program’s broader efforts.
Recipients of the Gridiron Gang Award exemplify what it means to be part of the Forester Football family. Their actions strengthen the bonds that unite our community and reflect the pride, care, and commitment that sustain the tradition of Lake Forest College Football.
