Planning your Naples High Golden Eagles’ schedule involves a few key steps. First, we need to book the five other teams in our district. For the next two years, those teams will be Barron Collier, Estero, Golden Gate, Gulf Coast, and, for the first time, Aubrey Rogers. After that, we’ll add the teams from the Collier County Athletic Conference. Our division includes the Collier County teams that aren’t in our district: Lely & Immokalee. After those two, plus the Kickoff classic, which counts toward the CCAC standings, we’ve got four spots open.

Cassie Barone, our Activities Director/Activities Coordinator, secured contracts with four teams that were all in the playoffs in 2025 and ranked highly in their divisions at the end of last season. They’re Riverview (Sarasota) #8 in 7A, Manatee #15 in 5A, Palmetto #13 in 6A, and Palmetto (Miami) #6 in 7A. Pull your chin strap on tight - 2026 is going to be an exciting year!
