Equipment fittings will take place in May (Exact date TBD and notification will take place via email registered to your athlete’s account). At this time, your athlete will be fitted for their helmet, shoulder pads, game pants and game jersey. It is crucial that your athlete is in attendance for fittings, so we can accurately order equipment and uniforms. If your athlete will be providing their own equipment, please bring that with so we can ensure a proper fit.

Equipment handout will take place in July (Exact date TBD and notification will take place via email registered to your athlete’s account). Your athlete will be required to submit a $100 per athlete payment for our raffle tickets/fundraiser and a $250 check, per athlete, for your volunteer (DIBS) deposit. If you have 3 or more athletes, you only pay for the first 2 for DIBS and Raffle Tickets. If you do not have these items with you at the time of equipment/uniform pick up, your athlete will not be able to receive their football equipment/uniform.
