The school board just confirmed that the new turf will bear Coach Cawood's name. This beautiful result belongs entirely to you and the time you took to care about his legacy. I am just so happy that we could give him this long overdue recognition together.

It's been 10 years since Coach Cawood retired. The state has honored him as he is in the state hall of fame. It's way past due that our own community honors him. We want either the field or the press box to be named after him. We are due for new turf at the stadium and when installed we will be able to get "Bill Cawood field" placed on the turf. We are also trying to fund raise for a new press box, also hoping the school district can pitch in. If we get a new press box then perhaps we name it after him. In the comments, state whether you think the we should name the field or the press box after Coach Cawood. We want to make a decision and honor him this fall. The school district has not told us how many signatures we need so let's just shoot for 1000. Please share and let this reach all his former students, players and coaches.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many people still remember Coach Cawood with such fondness. We are nearly at one hundred names already and all of this momentum belongs entirely to the community that loves him. If you can help get this in front of just a few more former players or students I know we can hit our first goal.

Great man and mentor - The field should get his name since he would spend most of his summers taking care of it so it would be up to his expectations for fall...
I think the whole darn field press box and all should be named for him. Coach Cawood had a major part in raising my 3 boys and I know the boys he helped in his years of coaching number in the Thousands.
I never had the chance to play under him, but he chaperoned a field trip for a club I was in after he retired. The wealth of wisdom from this man is astounding and it seems I'm not the only one to have a similar experiences and opinions.
I say the field. As one of his former managers, I can say that man loved being out in the action. He left the press box business forr his coordinator and filmer.
I am very proud to call this man my friend mentor and childhood hero. Nothing we do can repay him for the countless hours giving pep talks, advice, or just listening (let alone the football aspect) the least we could do is name the field after him right there on the turf. I will be proud to attend such an event.
Name the field Cawood and build anew press box.
Well deserved

Name that field after Bill Cawood. 22 seasons and many lives changed after Bill Cawood's era. I constantly revisit the concepts and responsibilities he helped instill in my character. What a great leader, inspirer, and friend.
