Football Team Information
Registration is $120.00 per player for the upcoming 2023 Season. You will be given a payment choice after you complete your online registration. We will also ask you to participate in fundraising during the season. We have many opportunities to volunteer and will need your help on the field, in the press box, and in the concession stand. Our program relies exclusively on volunteers and we cannot succeed without help.
Football practices will start on August 1st, and will be 6-8pm. Our first 3 practices will be conditioning only. This will be non contact. After that, you can expect to have practice Mon-Friday during the next three weeks of the season. Practice will then be reduced to Tues-Wed-Thursday 6-8pm during the school year. Most of our games will be played on Sunday from 12:30-5:30pm (Order of games on Sunday will be A,B,C,D). Games are typically 60-90 minutes in length. We will most likely have one or two Saturday night games during the season, these games start at 4pm with D-Team beginning first. Detachable or metal cleats are not allowed in our league, so please make sure all players are wearing molded cleats.
If you are a first year player/parent for D-Team, please understand this will largely be an instructional year. They will learn a basic understanding of their football gear, fundamental positions and formations, and safe execution of proper tackling and blocking technique. This year will also teach your child about team building, overcoming adversity, competition, and most importantly, good sportsmanship. There is no playoff or championship at the D-Team level, so winning is absolutely not the main focus for this beginner year. We can't stress enough that the D Team, is not and should not be, competitive football.
If you are experiencing a financial burden and the registration fee is difficult to pay at this time, please connect with the appropriate person in the above "contact" tab and accommodations will be considered for your situation. Children will never be turned away from our organization because of a financial problem.
