The Alabama high school football season is around the corner.

The season can get started on Aug. 20, with practice allowed to start on Aug. 3, unless a team elected not to hold a spring practice session — squads can start fall practice on July 27. The playoffs will start Nov. 6, going each week until the football state championship games in Mobile from Dec. 2-5.

Plenty of defending champions are looking to keep their crown including Thompson (Class 7A), Clay-Chalkville (Class 6A), Moody (Class 5A), Jackson (Class 4A), Mars Hill Bible (Class 3A), Coosa Christian (Class 2A) and Maplesville (Class 1A).

This is the first year of the new public and private split which sees six public school classes and two private school classes. This year also sees the first football championship event to be in Mobile as part of the new rotation and a five day event.
