Follow live score updates for the 2026 AHSAA high school football season as Week 0 games kick off across Alabama.

High school football resumes in the Gadsden area this week, with the Alabama High School Athletic Association's (AHSAA) season kicking off on Aug. 20. The inaugural games for Week 0 will take place on Thursday and Friday, Aug. 21, with a total of 20 matches across the region.

Six teams will kick off their season on Thursday, Aug. 20, with one additional game scheduled before the full Friday lineup. The Gadsden Times will be covering the Thursday night game, in which Gaston will face Spring Garden. On Friday, Aug. 21, Collinsville will host Sylvania, while Maxwell Donaldson will make its debut against Gadsden City, and Oxford's Titans will return to the top classification.

The AHSAA football season is set to run through October, with playoffs commencing in November. The season features a new organization structure, with a public-private split resulting in two separate classes, and the elimination of 7A. The AHSAA Football Championships are scheduled to occur from December 1-5 in Mobile.
