Foundation Academy announces its football program to leave FHSAA

Foundation Academy has announced its football program has been accepted into the Sunshine State Athletic Association and will not compete in the FHSAA in the sport starting this fall. 

“This move is aimed at placing the program in a conference with like-minded schools, fostering a more competitive and supportive environment for our team,” school officials said in a prepared statement. 

The Lions will join Windermere Prep and Legacy Charter as other local programs that compete in the SSAA football league. 

Last season Foundation finished 7-3 as part of the FHSAA, competing in Class 1M, District 2. 

Foundation will open its inaugural season in the SSAC against its reigning state champions, The Master's Academy.
