According the the CYACougars website practice for youth football starts mid-July?  That is a full month before high school starts practice.  Summer break anyone?  I don’t know about you but this seems a bit early and like it would cause lots of vacation plan conflicts to me.  Should kids 7 and up be practicing football in mid July?  Practices will begin  July 19, 2008.   Keep an eye on the web site for changes passed for the 2008 season.   This was taken right off the home page of the cyacougars website.  Football must be heating up in Catoctin!

According to the MVAA website the Middletown Knights MVYFL teams participating in Division II guarantee play time for all kids who attend practice.  This is not a league wide rule but rather an organizational one.  Other organizations in the league still do not guarantee play time at any level or any age?  Good Job Middletown.  See below informaition from the Middletown youth football website:

The MVYFL is comprised of a DI and DII level.  The same coaches coach both the DI and DII teams.  Both divisions practice together and only separate on game day.  The DII Middletown squads adhere to a “must-play” policy.  Playing time at the DII level is afforded to all of the athletes that practice.  MVAA understands there are commitments that take precedence over football, including but not limited to family, scholastic and religious events.  These situations can be handled one on one with the head coach.
