Registration opened on February 1, 2021. Facebook is updated and returning players receive an email from our Board of Directors once registration is open.
When you register your child to play football or cheer, there will be a place to volunteer to coach. After the Board of Directors evaluates all the registrations and requests, you will be notified and given further instruction. All coaches must complete background checks and football coaches must get the USA Football certification.
Equipment and uniform fittings are held in July and August. The times and days will be posted on our web site and you will also be notified via email. Multiple dates will be offered to accommodate different schedules.
