Windham High forms football co-op with Coventry, Bolton and Parish Hill
Summary

Facing dwindling roster numbers after the 2025 season, Windham High School has established its first football co-op. The new partnership incorporates athletes from Coventry, Bolton, and Parish Hill to bolster a program that fielded only 30 players last year. Coach Randall Prose, entering his 10th season, noted that the merger allows the school to reintroduce a sub-varsity structure that was previously unavailable. While the integration of players from different communities presents challenges in learning the program's specific wing-T offensive scheme, school officials report that the transition has been positive off the field. The combined team aims to stabilize the program's future while leveraging the influx of new talent to improve varsity performance. Practices have been underway as the squad prepares for the new season.
