* Jr. Midget 14 year olds must be in 8th grade.

** NOTE: One pound per week weight allowance will be added at weigh in before each game.

The initial weights are confirmed in a “certification” process when prospective players are weighed without equipment. The upper weight limits increase each week during the season to accommodate the fact that all of these players are growing.

Players are weighed before each game to ensure that they satisfy the applicable weight requirements. A player who does not satisfy the weight requirement will not be permitted to play in the game.

Registration Fees

Registration fee is 425.00 for tackle football, and $125.00 for flag (or future league) football.
