Following a grand jury investigation, four coaches and six players have been charged in connection with football hazing allegations at Cheltenham High School from last year, officials said Wednesday.
The two incidents, one in August and one in September, resulted in the school canceling its football seasons for 2025 and 2026.
In the footage, multiple players restrain their teammate and use a broomstick to poke at his legs and butt, Steele said.
Two other juveniles, who have not been named, are charged with aggravated assault, hazing and unlawful restraint, and two additional players have been charged with conspiracy to commit hazing, perjury and tampering with evidence.
In December 2025, investigators moved the case into a grand jury investigation to compel testimony under oath, Steele said.
