Zion Chapel will open the 2021 season with three consecutive road games, beginning with a jamboree against Florala on August 20. The Rebels will open the season a week later when they travel to take on Kinston. They close out their road swing against Abbeville on Sept. 3 for the Region 2 opener.

The Rebels make their home debut on Sept. 10 when they take on the Tigers from Elba.

The Rebels are back on the road a week later to take on Houston County.

The Rebels then have three-straight home games beginning on Sept. 24 when they host Samson. They then play G.W. Long and Ariton on Oct. 1 and Oct. 8.
