Local football fans can get their first look at the 2026 Breckenridge Buckaroos football team on Saturday, Aug. 8, during the annual Watermelon Scrimmage at Buckaroo Stadium. The Buckaroos will finish up non-district play against the Anson Tigers, who were five and zero last year going into district play and had some injuries. “We get to open first two weeks of district play here. Saturday’s scrimmage will give Buckaroo fans their first opportunity to see that progress firsthand before Breckenridge opens the 2026 season later this month. The annual Watermelon Scrimmage will begin at 11 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 8, in Buckaroo Stadium.
