Pop Warner has designed a classifcation
to help promote a safe, playing environment for all
players. This is why there are sevaral different levels
or teams offered for children to participate in. There
are two major factors that determine the playing level:
Age and Weight.
We generally
suggest each child play at the "lowest level"
possible, unless there are compelling reasons to move
up.
AGE
A child's football age is the age of
the child as of July 31, 2008.
WEIGHT
A child's football weight is determined
at the Pop Warner Certification in late August. If your child will not be available this day, please
make arrangements with your head coach to have your
child certified by Pop Warner BEFORE this
date. Failure to do so will result in your child being
ineligible for play this season and will have to wait
until next season to play.
