For the 2006 seniors, the
Annual Arab Football Banquet wrote the final chapter in
their high school football career Sunday afternoon.
Eleven seniors were honored during the program that filled
the Arab Senior Center Sunday afternoon. Each was
awarded their football letter and game jersey.
It wasn't all about receiving.
The seniors presented signed footballs to coach Watt Parker
and outgoing Arab Football Booster Club president, Sid
Tidmore. Each senior also gave the coaches a gag gift
that illustrated a special memory from the past season.
The annual banquet serves as the
culmination of the football season each year, with a catered
banquet and awards ceremony honoring the cheerleaders and
players who have lettered in football athletics. It is also
a time when standout players and cheerleaders are recognized
for their accomplishments
Most awards were
voted by the members of the football team
with the exception of the Iron Man, Beamon
Lyons and Scholar Athlete Award
