On Friday September 13, Lincolnton High School was notified that they are among 50 high schools across the country to receive $5,000 last week as part of T-Mobile’s recently launched “T-Mobile Friday Night 5G Lights”!
The $5,000 award will help to support the school’s football programs. The high school can use the money towards items such as new equipment, sports gear or to cover transportation expenses. Lincolnton High School is one of nine high schools in North Carolina to win $5,000 since the program launched in August.
The following high schools in North Carolina have received a collective $45,000 from T-Mobile for their football programs:
· Bunker Hill H.S. (Claremont)
· Charles B Aycock H.S. (Pikeville)
· Lincolnton H.S. (Lincolnton)
· Maiden H.S. (Maiden)
· Northeastern H.S. (Elizabeth City)
· Northside H.S. (Jacksonville)
· Rosewood H.S. (Goldsboro)
· Salisbury H.S. (Salisbury)
· Swansboro H.S. (Swansboro)
The Friday Night 5G Lights program will ultimately give one small-town school a chance to win a $2 million grand prize football field technology makeover. Each of the winning high schools are still in the competition for a chance to receive the ultimate grand prize!
In addition, 16 finalists will each receive $25,000 and 300 schools will each receive $5,000 throughout the competition's entry period to support high school football programs nationwide.
