Content

Upper Dublin Youth Football is for players 4-14 years old and open to girls and boys from Upper Dublin and surrounding areas.

FLAG
The Upper Dublin Youth Football Club Flag program is an intramural flag program for children ages 4-6 (must turn 4 during the season year and cannot turn 7 during the season year) with all practices and games held at SPARK Field. Teams will practice once a week on Mondays with a game once a week on Fridays. Each child will receive an Upper Dublin Youth Football Club reversible jersey (red and white).

TACKLE
Our tackle program belongs to the Keystone State League (KSL) and is currently one of the largest organizations in the league. In a typical year, we are proud to be able to field multiple teams for each weight class in the KSL, for ages 6-14. By having multiple teams of 16-20 players per team at each weight class, it enables us to separate teams according to experience and skill level so all the kids can have a positive experience. Our top team plays in the American conference, while our 2nd and 3rd teams at each weight class play a JV type schedule versus other teams with younger and less experienced players. Summer Camp (Tackle) Camp begins early August and are held Monday through Thursday from 6-8pm. Attending camp will begin to condition the children to play a contact sport. This is also the time that the coaches work with the kids to develop and assure proper techniques are being used on the playing field. Once school starts practices are reduced to two nights a week with a game a week. All practices are at SPARK Field.

GAMES
The first regular season game is 1-2 weeks after Labor Day and the season finishes in mid/late November, depending on playoff scenarios. Most games are held on Saturdays, but there is a possibility for Friday night or Sunday games. All home games are at SPARK Field.

COACHING
All coaches (Flag & Tackle) must pass a comprehensive background check and be certified with USA Football's Heads Up Program.
The Heads Up Football is a comprehensive program developed by USA Football to advance player safety.
Our coaches work directly with the Upper Dublin High School coaches to ensure we are teaching the proper fundamentals to the children. Our youth program runs many of the same schemes as the High School, but at a simplified level for the youth players to help make the transition into High School easier when kids get older.

EQUIPMENT
Upper Dublin Youth Football Club provides a multi-piece pad set for all tackle kids including helmet, shoulder pads and pants which must be returned once the season comes to an end. All players will also receive and be able to keep a game jersey personalized with their last name on the back. The only equipment not provided by UDYFC are cleats, mouth piece, athletic supporter & cup.
