2008 Pee Wee Team Information


The Pee Wee division is for ages 6 thru 8. A child's league age is his age on October 31st. If a team fills we will attempt to place all athletes in surrounding teams. The Pee Wee teams are strictly instructional!! The emphasis at this level is on basic football skills and having fun. All NCCFL Pee Wee athletes receive a minimum of one quarter of continuous play. The Pee Wees play a 9 game season. No standings are kept and there are no playoff games. They are outfitted with game and practice uniforms. Pee Wee games are played on Saturday. This season games will be held at our new 4 field complex at Blue Diamond Park. Each league family will receive two adult season game passes for their $50 field use fee. While practice will usually run 3-5 nights a week during the summer (there is a lot to teach this level!), once school begins they drop to 2 nights during the week. At NCCFL we are always in search of coaches and directors that posses the skills and character to coach at this level. Click here if you would like to volunteer as a coach or director. The sign-up cost for the Pee Wee team is $40 cash, Master Card, Visa, Discover, American Express or money order. Avoid the long lines at sign-up by registering on-line, just pay by credit card. The equipment fee of $100 will be collected at equipment handouts. You may cover this cost by selling an additional 50 raffle tickets or reduce it by $10 dollars per athlete by signing up and taking you parent class in May or $5 in June! There is a $120 family fee that covers our lease and maintenance on Blue Diamond Park. This fee allows you and all of your guests free access to the games at Blue Diamond Stadium. This fee may be covered by selling a single banner or year book ads totaling $150 dollars. By investing a small amount of time selling raffles and ads your athlete may participate for as little as $40. We also offer the opportuniy to earn a credit for new athetes reffered to the league. Click here for details! All athlete's are required to have at least one parent or guardian attend the Parent Awareness Seminar. You will receive your raffle tickets and information packet in your parent class. This class has really improved the practice and game atmosphere allowing our athletes a much better sports experience. ID cards will be issued for receiving equipment. No equipment will be issued under any circumstances without this obligation being met. Class sizes are limited and will be closed to sign-up when they fill. If you miss a class for an emergency reschedule immediately. Participation in the raffle sale of 50 $3 tickets is requied. All parents (Benefactors ecluded) are responsible for up to 3 volunteer activities when asked. For 2008 this will include traffic control and cart assitance and field days at Blue Diamond Stadium. There would be a $75 fee if you are unable to participatre in these activities. You may also choose a one time Gold Benefactor donation of $450 for one athlete, $750 for two and $950 for a whole immediate family living at the same address, which would cover all of your costs and volunteer commitments. For 2008 we are offering a Platinum Benefactor Donation that will, in addition to all the Gold benefits, get your athlete(s) new cloth (except Game Jersey) and Pads as well as shoulder pads and Helmet as available by fit. You will be fitted first with the equipment staff on the Monday before equipment starts to avoid the lines and assure maximum availability of new equipment. The Benefactor Donations are donations and are not refundable under any circumstances! Practice begins on August 4th with equipment handouts beginning the week of August 10th and games beginning on September 6th. The league banquet will be in December. All athletes receive a trophy (size determined by team placement) and yearbook at the banquet. Our teams and executive board are staffed with an all volunteer force. This is how we keep costs to a minimum. We are always in search of volunteers who posses the skills to teach youth sports. If you can help out please click here to volunteer
