YOUTH TACKLE 4/5/6


Our Youth Tackle Football program is available for participants in 4thgrade through 6th grade. Kids in 3rd grade are allowed to participate as well, but we encourage you to reach out to our Football Director, Mike Lochman to inquire about this exception before registration. Our program plays in the Snowbelt League, which has many NH and Vermont communities participating. The goals of the Youth Tackle Football program are to continue to grow players in the areas of teamwork, confidence, fitness, and sportsmanship while placing a tremendous emphasis on safe and effective techniques that players can build on throughout their football and athletic careers. The league format allows for all youth players to practice as a single team, while having the potential for 2 games, one for 6th graders and more experienced or developed 5th graders, and another game for 4th graders and less experienced or developed 5th graders. This format is ideal for player safety and playing time maximization, and is a great highlight of the Snowbelt League. If we have a high enough level of participants, we can field both teams successfully, so please spread the word and help us recruit some great families into the organization!

Youth Tackle Football typically runs from mid/late August through the end of October/early November. We typically practice 5 days per week in the pre-season to build body stamina and conditioning. We then transition to 2-3 practices per week and play games on Saturdays. The league provides helmets, shoulder pads, and all required protective gear. Kids will need to have their own cleats, water bottles, and mouth pieces. Our Head Youth Football Coach is Mike Lochman who has almost 30 years of coaching experience at the High School and Youth levels. Please reach out to [email protected] if you have questions.
