Make sure the Athlete's name is clearly marked on the inside of the helmet shell and leave it on the bench by the front door.

 

Athletes that are turning in helmets to be painted after 5/12 will be contacted for pick up once the helmets have been painted and decals have been applied.

 

LEAGUE NEWS

 

Head Coaches joined a recent NYS East webinar hosted by the league director.  Games are tentatively scheduled to start 9/12.  All game schedules are pending.  We have been told the league will do its very best to post game day schedules plus the following 2 weeks every week once the Fall tackle season is underway.  We will update our online calendar and send out Remind messages when we receive game schedule information.

 

A league representative will join us at one of upcoming scheduled practices to register and certify Athletes for league play.  Dates, times, and cost to be determined.  We will notify Athletes and their families accordingly.

COVID-19

 

We are anxiously awaiting good news from Governor Ducey's office about the possibility of the State of Arizona moving into Phase II of the White House and Centers for Disease Control Guidelines for Opening Up America Again.  If/when this happens, and organized youth activities such as ours are able to resume operations, we will provide guidance, based on local, state, and federal guidelines, for doing so safely to Athlete households, coaches, and staff.

 

TACKLE UNIFORMS

 

Our uniform package includes:  home and away game pants, game jerseys, practice jerseys, and socks.  The game pants are pocketless and a separate 7-pad girdle is included in the uniform package along with a duffel bag.

 

Once an Athlete is registered online through our website, a Parent/Guardian will receive an email requesting the Athlete's preferred jersey number and uniform sizes.  Please use the size chart on our website.

 

Uniform Size Chart >

 

Uniforms will be ordered on 6/2.  Athletes will be required to wear the practice jerseys included in the uniform package once shoulder pads are worn in late July.  Head coaches will determine which color practice jersey is to be worn to practice prior to each practice.

 

TACKLE EQUIPMENT

 

Athletes are required to have a Royal Blue helmet (decals properly applied) with a black face guard, shoulder pads, black football practice pants, a mouthpiece, football cleats, and their own water bottle.

 

Football gloves and other accessories are optional however, color combinations should only include royal blue, white, or black.

 

We recommend you start at Play It Again Sports They are located near I-10 and Litchfield Road, and they have new and used football equipment available for sale however, you may not find everything you need.  Their phone number is 623-939-7799.  Sunvalco Athletic Supply sells football equipment and reconditions helmets.  Sunvalco has sold their helmet painting and reconditioning business to Riddell. Helmets turned into Sunvalco are being shipped to Riddell's warehouses for this service. Orders are backed up until late August.  Their phone number is 602-269-7833.  Universal Athletic sells new football equipment only.  Amazon sells and delivers football equipment.  Other sporting goods stores such as Dick's or Big 5 sell football equipment as well.

7v7 UNIFORMS

 

Even though our Spring 7v7 season has been cancelled, 7v7 uniforms were ordered for all registered Athletes.  Most of the 7v7 uniforms will be handed out to Athletes at our upcoming June 2nd practice.  Others may be delivered directly to Athlete households that are not returning for Fall tackle football.

 

7v7 Registration Fees

 

Households that registered Athletes ages 10-13 for Spring 7v7 and Fall Tackle automatically received a credit, less the cost of the 7v7 uniform, that can be applied to the following 7v7 season.  Dates and times TBD.

 

Households that registered Athletes ages 10-13 for Spring 7v7, but did not register for Fall Tackle automatically received a credit, less the cost of the 7v7 uniform, that can be applied to Fall Tackle registration or the following 7v7 season.  Dates and times TBD.

 

Households that registered 8th grade Athletes for Spring 7v7 that will be high school Freshman in the Fall of 2020 received a refund, less the cost of the 7v7 uniform.

STRENGTH & CONDITIONING

It is imperative that Athletes always prepare for and are well conditioned for the sport they are participating in.  Athletes should follow proper nutrition guidelines for their sport(s) and engage in proper strength training exercises under the direct supervision of their parent/guardian or certified coach(es) and trainer(s).  Athletes should seek out specialized training for their sport away from team practices, and actually acquire the skills and abilities necessary to play their sport better than their competition.
