A Missouri high school football team has become the latest target of Freedom From Religion Foundation (FFRF), a non-profit advocacy group with a particular interest against religious activities in public schools. Despite no reported complaints from the community, the FFRF is requesting the coaches stop praying with players before and after games, calling those prayers “illegal.”
According to the pro-secular group, Cameron High School’s head coach, Jeff Wallace, and assistant coach, David Stucky, had reportedly been “holding religious ‘chapel’ services before and after football games where coaches pray with players and read and discuss Bible verses.”
