All players should have this equipment for the first practice.  Players requiring glasses must purchase approved CLEAR sports glasses (no tint or transitional lenses) on a head fitting keeper strap.

After the first 10 practices are complete, practices will be 2 days a week from 6 pm to 8 pm. Days are times are subject to field availability and weather conditions. Coaches or Business Managers will notify parents/players of any changes.

4. When are games?

Games are played on Saturdays with start times ranging from 8 am to 2 pm according to division. Generally the younger divisions play first and oldest divisions last. Schedules are distributed in mid-August with the season starting at the end of August, playoffs in October and the state championship in late October/early November.

5. Is fundraising required or sponsorships needed?

Yes! Pop Warner is a non-profit organization and strives to make our programs affordable to everyone.

We are the only youth football organization that provides certified equipment to all players. Registration fees help to cover costs of fields, lighting, referees, medics, and equipment. However in order to keep our fees affordable for everyone, teams are also required to pay an assessment fee to cover the remaining expenses. Additional funds raised by teams are applied towards perks for the team such as personalized jerseys, t-shirts, parties, etc.
