Sporting events carry a weight that can turn a regular game to a lifelong memory. Every hit of a ball is momentous, and even though the reality is that most of us will not make it to the big leagues, for that day, we feel on top of the world. Sports games were plentiful growing up, and for special moments friends, family, or significant others would show up and give their support, fueling that drive and passion to win and stand out. However, it is easy to feel like there was as surplus of games, especially since they were every weekend or every other day, and as we get older it becomes increasingly difficult to differentiate between them. Despite this, the magic contained in night games is something every athlete remembers.
Night games are just different. There is something about playing under the lights that makes the entire night more magical. Every hit means more, every tackle is more personal, and every point scored feels amazing. The cooler air certainly adds to this effect, and in the colder months, passionate games are reflected in the mist coiling from hot heads whereas excited shouts exit the body in visible form like a dragon's breath. Night games are moments every athlete wishes they can relive, but for current athletes, night games are always something to look forward to.
However, night games are nothing without the bright lights that illuminate the field. Without them, there is not atmosphere, no passion, and no game, which is why Winchester, Massachusetts is seeking bids from qualified vendors to replace athletic lighting at Ginn Field.
