Westfield students participate in 13 different sports and field teams at the varsity, junior varsity, and middle school levels. Westfield also offers football and cheerleading at the youth level.
NEW HEAD FOOTBALL COACH NAMED
The Westfield School is pleased to announce Chad Campbell as the school’s new Head Football Coach. He will resume duties as of January 1, 2023, replacing Coach Rob Fitzpatrick who is stepping down from football to concentrate on duties as Westfield’s Head Baseball Coach.
Campbell recently retired from Peach County High School where he served as Head Football Coach since 2007 and as a member of the school’s coaching staff since 1993. Under his leadership for the past 16 seasons, his teams earned an overall record of 168-38, winning a 2009 state championship and finishing as state runner up in 2011, 2017, and 2018.
“We greatly appreciate Coach Rob Fitzpatrick for his service and look forward to his continued efforts in our athletic program,” said William Carroll, Head of School. “We are excited to have Coach Campbell heading up our football program and know that his experience and success will be a great asset. We believe he will continue the excitement and energy that Coach Fitzpatrick brought to our football program, and we look forward to having Coach Campbell at Westfield.”
