The 2026 Battle of the Birds, brought to you by Centerpoint Health, will take place on Friday, August 28, 2026 at Cardinal Stadium. The Scott County High School Cardinals will host the Great Crossing High School Warhawks. The game starts at 7:30pm with a free community tailgate hosted by Centerpoint Health starting at 5pm.

Please make arrangements to carpool because parking at SCHS will be limited. A site map of the SCHS campus is included below ​and marks the entry point before the start of the game, drop off locations, and parking. Entrance to the SCHS campus will be from Long Lick Road.

Please note, no backpacks and no pets are permitted at Cardinal Stadium. You may purchase tickets with cash at the gate or online for credit card purchases. Advanced ticket purchase is strongly suggested. Purchase tickets in advance here: https://gofan.co/event/6837869?schoolId=KY2825
