The start of Gladstone’s 2025 football season will have to wait for a couple more weeks.

Gladstone was originally scheduled to play at North Bend on Friday and at Estacada on Sept. 12. Both of those games have been canceled, and North Bend and Estacada have opted to play each other on Sept. 12 at Estacada High School.

According to Gladstone Athletic Director Ryan Browning, the team has faced low turnout in the opening weeks of the football season. But Gladstone is still planning on playing on Sept. 19 against Molalla and all of the scheduled games after that.

On the OSAA website, Gladstone has 20 varsity players with eight freshmen.

Gladstone went 4-6 in the 2024 fall season, and was 2-2 in league play. The Gladiators fell 47-0 to Marist Catholic in the first round of the state tournam
