GO RAMS!
Registration is now open for our 2025 season!
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.
Information on equipment and uniform distribution will be posted on the home page of our website each season, and registered families also will be notified via email. Multiple dates will be offered to accommodate different schedules.
No. A parent, or adult approved by the parent, must be present during practices. If a parent is attending practices for multiple children at different grade levels, please communicate with your coaches to let them know where you'll be in case of emergency (physical or weather emergency).
Yes. You will be assigned specific times to help at the snack stand and special events. We are an all-volunteer, non-profit organization; therefore, we are dependent on our volunteers. Our success is only accomplished by the support of our parents. Thank you in advance for your support!

If a player's injury is minor, they will be able to return to regular football activity once they are cleared by their coaches. If the injury is more severe (i.e. head injury or broken bone), the player will need written clearance from their physician and clearance from the Board of Directors to return to regular football activity.
We work hard to ensure teams are sized appropriately so each player receives quality individual coaching and a positive athletic experience. As noted in our bylaws, anytime there are 24 registrations in any one tackle football grade, the waitlisting process begins. Registration continues for these grades and, once the necessary number of players and coaches are registered, an additional team can be formed.
While we are unable to guarantee a roster spot to waitlisted players, regular messages and outreach continues to help secure additional registrations and ensure all interested players are able to participate.
Spring-Ford Youth Football & Cheer will provide a skirt, shell, two sets of poms, two bows and a track jacket. The skirt, shell and poms are returned at the end of the season, the bows and track jackets are kept. White cheer sneakers and bloomers are required. A long sleeve white shirt, navy leggings, clear poncho, and rain boots also will be needed for cold and inclement weather.
Cheer practice starts two weeks before Spring-Ford's first day of school. During these weeks practice is held Monday - Thursday, 6 p.m. - 7:30 p.m. Flag practice ends at 7 p.m. Once school starts, cheer practice is Tuesday and Wednesday. In October, practice is one day a week (either Tuesday or Wednesday) on the day that works best for the squad. Practices will end at 7 p.m. as the days get shorter.
The cheerleaders cheer every weekend (unless there is a bye) at home and away games.
The game schedule will be published by the end of August. Cheerleaders will be assigned to a squad and will either follow a football team or rotate among multiple football teams. Schedules will be communicated via the team scheduling app or email.
