“We are thrilled to host high school football once again at Fenway Park,” said Fenway Sports Management President Mark Lev. “Thanksgiving rivalry games are always a highlight of the high school football season and adding the iconic backdrop of Fenway Park will only make the occasion more special for the players, coaches, and fans. We look forward to welcoming the communities and football fans to the Park to celebrate this time-honored tradition.”
Fenway began hosting high school football shortly after its opening in 1912, when city rivals Boston Latin and English played their annual Thanksgiving Day game at the ballpark. Two days later, Fenway hosted the 1912 high school football national championship game when Everett was defeated by Oak Park, IL. The last high school football game at Fenway was held in 1935, followed by an 80-year absence until its return to the ballpark in 2015. Last year’s matchups included hometown teams showcasing rivalries between East Boston and South Boston, North Andover and Andover, Blackstone Valley Tech and Nipmuc Regional, and Winchester and Woburn.
