The fall varsity and JV football schedule has been released by the new Vine Valley Athletic League, bringing with it a whole series of unfamiliar league rivals.

The Sonoma Valley High Dragons played a full-suit scrimmage against Analy over the weekend, and non-league games are scheduled for the next month – with a season opener against Cloverdale, at Cloverdale, on Friday, Aug. 17.

A week later, on Aug. 24, the Dragons play El Molino in Forestville, another exhibition game against a former league rival. The following week, on Aug. 31, they meet El Camino, from South San Francisco, in their first home game at Arnold Field this year.

The non-league schedule ends with two road games to the Bay Area, the first on Aug. 31 in Richmond, against the John F. Kennedy Eagles; and the next on Sept. 7 in a rematch with El Camino, this time in South San Francisco.

The Vine Valley schedule follows:

Friday, Sept. 14: Napa High School in Napa

Friday, Sept. 21: Sonoma at American Canyon

Friday, Sept. 28: Justin Siena at Sonoma

Friday, Oct. 5: Sonoma at Casa Grande (Petaluma)

Friday, Oct. 12: Petaluma at Sonoma

Friday, Oct. 19: Sonoma at Vintage (Napa)

Kickoff times vary from 4:30 to 5 p.m. for JV, 7 or 7:30 for varsity.
