The Colony High School is a 5A football program in the state of Texas with an enrollment of 2054 students and plays in UIL 5A District 5 Division 1.  Cougar Nation football began in 1986 and plays all of their home games on campus in Tommy Briggs Stadium.  Tommy Briggs was the first head football coach at The Colony High School and spent 16 seasons leading the cougars (1986-2001).  In 2010 The Colony High School opened a new football field house located on the north end of Tommy Briggs Stadium.  The field house is a state of the art facility with five coaches offices, a conference room, a team meeting room that seats 85 players, three locker rooms, a training room, and an equipment/laundry facility.  The Colony High School currently has 200 athletes involved in the football program and during the 2020 season had 5 teams competing on a weekly basis; Varsity, 2 JV teams and 2 freshman teams.  The Cougars are currently on a run of 7 out of 8 years in the playoffs.  We are excited about the 2021 Season and the future at The Colony HS.

Go Cougars!

 Parents, Students, and Guests—

I would like to take this opportunity to welcome you to another great season of TCHS Football, and to Cougar Nation!! 

As you enter our stadium this year, I want you to know we have devoted ourselves to provide a climate for you that is very safe in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.  From extra cleanings of our stadium and the accompanying facilities, to limits on capacities, and changes in our concession offerings, we have implemented protocols at TCHS that we believe will make you feel comfortable and help you enjoy the game this evening.

At TCHS, our 2020-21 theme is: “FORWARD FOCUS”!  We believe this theme is perfect for our school, our community, our state, and the nation as we navigate these days together.   At TCHS, we have been blessed to see great times of success over the last several years, and our aim is on moving forward, with relentless focus, to see even better days in the years ahead.   We thank you for joining us tonight as you become a part of this theme and this focus.  

I hope you enjoy the great efforts of our football program, as well as the musicianship of our band, the spirit of our cheerleaders, drill team, and Cougar Crew, and the top-notch service of our TCHS JROTC Cougar Battalion.  Enjoy the game, and let’s make “FORWARD FOCUS” come alive tonight!
