On Sun., Oct. 16, Green Wave varsity football players welcomed Big Brothers and their little brothers onto the field for an afternoon of football, fun and food.
Delbarton works with the Morris County Big Brothers/Big Sisters program to host events for boys ages 8 to 13 who are on a waiting list to be paired with adult “Big Brothers.”
Faculty member and Big Brother moderator Mike McGoldrick worked with football boosters to arrange the event, and Football Coach Brian Bowers and his coaching staff got his entire squad up and at 'em on a day off to teach football mechanics, conduct drills and run practice plays.

This annual cross-pollination between Delbarton's Big Brothers program and Wave Football players is always a win-win game
