Rangers,

We hope everyone is having a great summer. Our 2021 football season is almost here. We need everyone to keep working hard every day to continue to get better and be ALL IN as they prepare for training camp. Help us encourage all players to invest and be committed to their teammates! We expect them to be in great shape, have an updated physical on file, and have all online paperwork complete when they report for training camp. Our coaching staff can’t wait to get started with our teams. Please help us make sure your player arrives on time and is ready to get after it. All IN! GO RANGERS!

Rangers, 

We had several guys set some new PRs in the weight room last week as well as produce some great times in the 40 yard dash and 5-10-5 shuttle.  It shows that their hard work is paying off.  This week we will be spending more of our time in the weight room training.  We are on a normal Monday through Thursday schedule. Below is all the information and important reminders about our camp. If you have any registration questions or camp questions, please email todd.brown@leanderisd.org. Looking  forward to another great week. Send plenty of water with your athlete. Thank you. Go Rangers!

Dear Ranger Nation,

Good Evening! I am thrilled to announce that VRHS teacher/coach Chad Scott has been named the new Vista Ridge HS Athletic Coordinator/Head Football Coach. For the past twelve years, Chad has taught science, coached football/track, and has done an outstanding job as a teacher, colleague, and mentor of our student-athletes. Chad leads with integrity, has a tireless work ethic, serves with excellence, and is passionately committed to cultivating meaningful relationships with all Rangers. Coach Scott will continue to promote and champion our shared vision and values to create a “Best for the World” environment for all Ranger athletics. Chad is looking forward to building on a culture of excellence that has been a hallmark of Ranger football and Ranger athletics. Please join me in congratulating Chad Scott.

Go Rangers!

Dear Ranger Nation,

For twelve years, it has been my honor and privilege to work here at Vista Ridge alongside one of the best head coaches and coaching staffs in the state of Texas.  Brick by brick, our goal each year was to equip our young men and women for a future of excellence – to be the best citizens, the best spouses, the best parents, and the best employees. Family, character, toughness, relentless effort, and payday/finish have been our core values and it is these values that guide each and every thing that we do as a Ranger staff.  These core values will continue to guide us as we look to the future.  I am humbled to lead the Vista Ridge Ranger football team as head coach, and I am excited for the upcoming season. 

I’d like to share a little bit about myself with you.  I had the honor of playing high school football at Judson High School under legendary Coach DW Rutledge where we won 2 state championships.  I had the opportunity to be a multisport athlete during my time there.  My football career continued at Sam Houston State University where I received a great education and was blessed to meet my wife, Sherlyn.  We married and settled into San Antonio, where I worked for 2 years as a financial advisor.  Thankfully, God put the tug on my heart to go back into the world of athletics – a world where you work with a team and learn how to fight through adversity together.  We have been blessed with 3 daughters.  Chesni will be a Junior at VRHS this year and is a multi-sport athlete who loves being a Ranger.  Our middle daughter, Kayla, will be going into 8^th grade and is excited for her turn to be a Ranger in a year.  Our daughter, Samantha, passed away in 2011.  In her memory we have had the opportunity to encourage other families of medically fragile children through sMiles 4 Sammy.  We live out in the country with our 2 dogs, 2 hermit crabs and our chickens.  We love to travel to Colorado, enjoy anything outdoors, love watching all sports, and are actively plugged into our church family.

Our entire football coaching staff is excited to work together and to continue to lay the bricks that keep our Ranger family strong and maintain the highest level of integrity that Vista Ridge athletes have become known for.  Energetic and passionate work ethic will be our calling card and the cornerstone of Ranger football.

We are ALL IN.
Go Rangers!

Sincerely,

Coach Chad Scott
Vista Ridge High School
Head Football Coach & Athletic Coordinator

There will be no camp next week—June 28-July 2. This is the week that LISD shuts down. Also, with July 4th being on a Sunday, LISD is also closed on Monday, July 5th. We will have camp on July 6-9 (Tuesday-Friday that week only) Also, as a reminder, when camp resumes on July 6, the incoming 9th graders will work out from 8:30-10:30 for the remainder of the summer. Any questions, please email todd.brown@leanderisd.org Thank you.

Good Morning.

First of all, as a reminder, THERE IS NO CAMP NEXT WEEK FROM JUNE 28-JULY 5. That is the week that LISD shuts down. Also— since July 4th is on a Sunday, there will be no strength camp on that Monday (July 5th) either. That week, we will have strength camp from Tuesday-Friday (July 6-July 9). When we do come back that week, there will be an adjustment in the times that the INCOMING 9th grade works out. The Incoming 9th graders will start to work out from 8:30-10:30am. We would like to try to get them out of the heat a little bit. We will continue this adjustment for the remainder of strength camp. All other groups will remain the same.

Thank you.
