4 The Bell - The Centennial Rivalry Game

2 High Schools in a farming community in Southern California share a football rivalry that dates back nearly 100 years.

In 1943 this rivalry game which closes out the league season for these two teams became known as:
The Bell Game

In 2021 The Brawley Wildcats beat the Central Spartans and won the Bell. The 2022 season marks their Centennial Rivalry Game and the Central Spartans are looking for redemption.

Follow along some of the Central Spartans players and coaches on what this game means to them and the community and how they were taught valuable lessons that go beyond the field.
