Trinity League schools Servite High School and St. John Bosco High School football teams will play in the Brotherhood Bowl to be played on Friday, Oct. 18, Servite officials announced Friday.
The Trinity League game will be presented by the Los Angeles Rams as part of SoFi Stadium’s Friday Night Lights Series presented by LA Bowl Hosted By Gronk, Servite officials said in a release.
“We are pleased to welcome both Servite High School and St. John Bosco High School to SoFi
Stadium as a continuation of Friday Night Lights presented by LA Bowl Hosted By Gronk,” said Adolfo
Romero, Executive Director for LA Bowl Hosted By Gronk.
“This event highlights not only the talent of these student-athletes, but also the spirit of brotherhood and tradition that these two esteemed football programs represent. We are honored to provide a global stage for the Brotherhood Bowl and look forward to creating a memorable experience for the players, coaches, and fans alike.”
Servite will be the home team for the game. Most of the Friars’ home games are played at Cerritos College.
Servite Coach Chris Reinert said, “We are thrilled with the opportunity for our team to
compete against a fellow all-boys school in a world-class venue. Our young men will have the chance
to create a memory of a lifetime with their teammates on the same field as the Rams and the
Chargers. We are extremely grateful for the chance to represent the Trinity League as the first two
programs to play at SoFi Stadium.”
St. John Bosco Coach Jason Negro said, “It is an honor to officially partner with the
Servite Friars for this year’s Brotherhood Bowl to be played at SoFi Stadium. The brotherhood shown
by both schools to make this happen has been truly amazing and a testament to our commitment to
our schools’ communities.”
The two schools played for the first time in 1965 and have been playing annually since 1999 when
both teams were in the Serra League, Servite officials noted in a release.
The two programs are now part of the nationally known Trinity League and both teams have 4-0 records this season. Servite has a bye this week before resuming play on Friday, Sept. 27 vs. St. Paul at Cerritos College.
St. John Bosco hosts Pittsburg High School Friday night, Sept. 20.
The match-up will be the third of a series of high school football games played at
SoFi Stadium this fall, including the East LA Classic which will also be presented by LA Bowl Hosted
by Gronk and the Los Angeles Rams.
SoFi Stadium is the home of the Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers.
More information about tickets will be announced in the coming days, according to Servite officials.
