The Plant City football team won’t be on its home field until at least Oct. 24, and even that looks like a remote possibility.

Hillsborough County director of athletics Lanness Robinson confirmed Thursday that the Raiders’ scheduled home game Oct. 10 (next Friday) against East Bay will be moved to Durant High. Durant football coach Mike Gottman also confirmed the East Bay-Plant City game would be played at the Ron Frost Athletic Complex, home of the Cougars.

Robinson added that Plant City’s scheduled home game Oct. 24 against Newsome also likely will be moved to Durant. On Thursday, the updated schedule from the Hillsborough County athletic department lists both games as being scheduled to be played at Durant.

“The one next week is set in stone,” Robinson said of the field change. “The one on the 24th is a question mark, but a very weak question mark.”

There have been problems with Plant City’s field since new sod was laid just before the season began. The Raiders have already lost three home games this season, including this week’s scheduled game against Wharton, which has been moved to tonight at Wharton.

“It’s not ready. As soon as that field is ready, they can play on it,” Robinson said. “It’s all about the safety for the kids, and right now it’s not safe.”

If Plant City’s game Oct. 24 is moved to Durant, it would leave the Raiders with just one home game this season - the regular-season finale against Freedom on Nov. 14. As of Thursday, the updated county schedule still had the game being played at Plant City.
