Spring Indoor Football

Instead of experiencing football withdrawals register for Indoor Football soon!

I am sure you are asking why we are opening registration so early?

Here are a few reasons:

- Other programs in the area have already started their registration.

- If you register for Indoor Football before the last Fall Football equipment return date, you DO NOT have to return your football equipment from the Fall.

- We need an idea of how many players will be participating so we can create the most competitive teams.

- We would like to give you as much time as possible to register since we are heading into the holiday season.

You should register for the same organization you are currently playing for (Urbana, Linganore or Oakdale). We will make every effort to keep the teams as Lancers, Bears or Hawks. If there is not enough players registered for a particular age level we will combine the players to create a LOUYAA team.

For example: If there is only 5 Lancers registered for 8U, 4 Bears and 4 Hawks, a LOUYAA 8U team will be created. A neutral color jersey will be created and a coach will be selected from the coaches that express interest at the age level. This will allow us to place the players on a team at their age level instead of moving them up, the team should be competitive, and it will keep those players that want to play from sitting out for the season.

The base rules are included in this email as a reminder. All of the rules will be reviewed at the parents meetings. You will be notified of the date and time of the parents meetings in the future.
