Elementary Football Players and Parents 2015

Welcome to what we hope will be a fun learning experience for you and your child. We are currently in our 11th year of elementary football and have enjoyed working with and developing our future Gators. As a coaching staff, we try our best to give everyone playing time and teach the basic fundamentals of football.

Elementary football will be just for the 5th and 6th graders this year. We will have practices on Tuesdays and Thursdays until the end of the season. Saturdays are our game days. Most will be on the road, but we do have one scheduled for Middle River. We will pass out a schedule of upcoming events as we get them.

Our first practice is scheduled for September 1st at 3:30 in Greenbush. We will distribute equipment, insurance waivers, and go over any other instructions we might have. School will not be started yet, so parents will be in charge of getting their kids to and from practice that day.

Our first scheduled event will be in Erskine on September 12th.
