ARE YOU NEW TO FOOTBALL?


WHY FOOTBALL?

Did you hear about the sport from a friend or neighbor and want to find out more? 

First, you're in the right spot.  We offer Flag and Tackle programs at the youth level as well as for high school aged players.

If you have a child that is interested in football regardless of age, youth or high school, have them check out one of our free intro resources located in the right column.  Our site has a tremendous amount of info so please read through the information on the Pride tab. Can't find what you are looking for? Just email us and we'll be happy to chat with you. 

Football is a great sport for physical activity, fun, and discipline. Don't worry if your kid has never played, as most kids here haven't so your child is not at a disadvantage.  A lot of kids have only picked up a football in the last year to two, and every year we add more new kids to the program.
