Tackle Football

The tackle football league will consist of kids entering the 5th and 6th grades.  Games will be played on Saturday mornings/early afternoons at the Emporia High School athletic complex.  Participants playing on an Emporia team are required to attend a mandatory player workout.  All players must have a physical before they are allowed to practice. Anyone interested in volunteer coaching, please call 620-340-6300.  Players will be contacted by their coaches following the coaches meeting the week of July 29th.
