Schools you work for? I understood that you were an announcer at a game of Junior Chamber of Commerce sponsored clubs/teams. Or was "JC" a typo for "JV"?
If not a typo, how old are the players? I coach youth football in New York City, and I'm impressed with the apparent interest out west that has such things as a press box, etc. at such a game. Miked officials would be really stunning! BTW, here we do have a few night games for some of our older players (teen age), but things like PA, etc. would seem really lavish to us. Some games our Pee-Wees & below don't have goal posts (not that we could kick over them anyway) , and usually the fields are chalked (if at all) only every 10 yards and frequently have cones instead of regulation pylons.
Actually even if it was a typo, I'm still somewhat impressed by a HS JV having a night game.
