Bob Friday was a long time teacher and coach at Henderson High School.  His teams won 2 state team championships in track and field and many individual state championships.  More importantly, he taught his athletes and students to show integrity throughout their lives.  The Warrior Invitational has been renamed the Bob Friday Invitational in his honor.  The meet will be help on April 21 at Henderson High School. Here is meet information.

We are planning on awarding several scholarships in his honor.  Here is a scholarship letter.  You can also donate directly through this website.

In it's first year, we gave out $5000 in scholarships to Henderson Track and Field athletes.  Thanks in advance for your support.
