Lockport Junior Porters Football

Titles: 
4x Regional Champions
5x State Champions

Practices- 
Practices will start around the first of August, as we try to have two full weeks of practice  prior to the start of the school year. Practices during these weeks are M-F from around 6-8 (times may vary).  Practices are held at Morris Park or Lockport Township High School. Once school starts, practices will be reduced to three times per week, and are traditionally Monday, Tuesdays and Thursdays.  More information will be provided by each coach. Please note that players must complete 10 hours of conditioning and fundamentals before they can begin full-contact practice.  Exact dates will vary by team, and all details will be shared at the parent meeting.


Player Evaluations-
Player evaluations may occur during the first couple weeks of practice. During this time, players will take part in drills within their age group while being assessed by the coaches. Evaluations will take place over several days, after which players will be assigned to their appropriate team. For age groups with two teams, there will be both a D2 and a D3 team. More information to come. 

GAMES- 
Home games are played at Lockport Township High School, home of the 8A 2021 State Champions! Home games will traditionally be played on Sundays, starting with the youngest age levels playing first. Away games will be played with the other Chicagoland Pop Warner teams within our conference. Away games can be played on either Saturday or Sunday.  The scheduled will be provided to families as soon as the coaches have it.
