With the tackle division, please read the rules and the format for this division before you sign up. We have taken years researching and monitoring other programs. We have questioned parents on things they liked and didn’t like. We have asked high school coaches their opinions on the best way to present and teach the game of tackle football. We feel that we have put together a great program for your child to learn the game of tackle football and to be ready for the future.
Here are some things that will be different and some of the highlights of this division:
-16 Man Rosters (11 playing and mandatory ½ game playing time)
-4 Coaches Per Team
-No Kickoffs or Live Punts (eliminated high injury plays )
-Mandatory Scrimmages during August

Optional equipment that is allowed:
