What is needed at the tackle football fitting?

Please arrive early and allow enough time to have your daughter fitted for the right equipment. We have a lot of girls excited to play, so please be patient — fitting days can get busy.

What your player should wear:

Spandex shorts that football pants can fit up and over
An undershirt or tank top to help with trying on pads and being fitted for jersey size
Slip-on shoes

Please avoid jeans.

Girls will be weighed at the fitting.

If you have not paid for your registration yet you can come to the fitting events and we can help answer questions about registration. Note that all registration is done online by credit card. WE DO NOT ACCEPT CASH OR CHECKS.

BIRTH CERTIFICATE (or copy of certificate) is REQUIRED at equipment fittings to verify age. We want the girls in the right age groups and weight limits.

Are Coaches Certified?

The league teaches a HeadsUp style of play. Our coaches and board members train on how to avoid concussions or any other serious injuries. Fun and safety is huge priority.

The league requires all coaches to undergo background checks to be certified to coach. The certification process requires coaches to teach proper tackling and blocking techniques designed to take the head out of the play. It also teaches coaches to identify and respond to common injuries such as concussions.

Should I wait to put my girl in football till she’s bigger & stronger?

No. Football is a full-contact sport and it is important to learn proper techniques early. This first will help to avoid injuries. It will also teach your child how to make proper blocks, tackles and how to be blocked and tackled. If you wait to enroll your child it will only put them further behind in learning proper skills.

I want to play tackle football but can’t afford it.

Don’t let the lack of funds hold you back. Many companies or individuals are willing to sponsor girls to play in the league. Approach your employer to see if they will sponsor your child or another child in need.

PARENT BEHAVIOR

We ask all parents and fans to be respectful and set a great example of sportsmanship for our players.

Sit on your team’s sideline, behind the spectator rope.
Do not talk to referees or the other team’s players.
No yelling, swearing, belittling players, or altercations.
No smoking or alcohol.
No pets. Service dogs, as defined by the ADA, are welcome; emotional support animals are not service animals and are not allowed.
Please pick up your trash.

Consequences:

First ejection: must leave the field immediately and sit out the next game.
Second ejection (same season): banned for the rest of the season.
If an ejected fan refuses to leave, their team forfeits the game.
