Teams
The teams are broken down into weight groups and age! This makes tackle football at this age very safe and fun. In each group there are at least 2 teams--Gold and Silver. Gold and Silver teams play against other towns throughout the county. REMEMBER: Add 1 pound per week--game 1 add 1, game 2 add 2...

The allowed Growth Factor for all players is a rate of one pound per week starting the first week.
Pre-Game Weigh-Ins are mandatory, the official electronic scale, supplied by the home team, will be used to record maximum weight allowable for that game (Player's Weight, Equipment Weight, and Growth Factor, if applicable). All equipment worn for the weigh-in (including gym shoes) must be worn in the game. Player’ s will not be allowed to change equipment after the weigh-in is completed, except for equipment that is broken or damaged. All player's who do not meet the weight for that game will not be eligible to play in that game. We recommend that each team arrive at least 30 minutes prior to the scheduled start of the game. The allowed equipment factor (NO helmets to be worn) will be added as follows:
70lb Division - 8 lbs. Equipment= 79 lbs. First week
80lb. Division - 8 lbs. Equipment = 89 lbs. First week
90lb. Division - 9 lbs. Equipment = 100 lbs. First week
100lb. Division - 10 lbs. Equipment = 111 lbs. First week
115lb. Division - 11 lbs. Equipment = 127lbs. First week
130lb. Division - 12lbs. Equipment = 143 lbs. First week
Varsity 170/200lb. Division - 14lbs. Equipment = 185/215lbs. First week
