Teams included Heritage, Spruce Creek, Bishop Moore, Satellite Beach, Rockledge, Viera, Melbourne, Merritt Island, Eau Gallie and Melbourne Central Catholic.

The scrimmage, which served as a venue to train new football officials for the upcoming season, was well attended by scouts, family members and fans.

The coaches were very pleased with the rare opportunity to play three teams which gave them a chance to to evaluate their players. Fifty-five officials were also afforded live-action to hone their skills as they prepare for the 2014 fall season.
