Is this a recreational or competitive program?
We believe in teaching the principals of good
sportsmanship, fair play, and that winning is secondary to learning, our
football and cheerleading programs are extremely competitive. Each
year, the competition gets better and better and our program expects and
demands more out of the athletes to keep Town and Country as one of the
premier programs.
How long does the season last?
The season officially begins with the first day of practice
in Mid July, although some squads may have voluntary pre-season
mini-camps, which are recommended. The length of the season will of
course depend on how well each of the squads do throughout the season,
but at minimum the season will continue through the first week of
December. The TBYFL Super Bowl historically has taken place in early
December, and competitions for cheerleading may stretch into the earlier
part of next year.
What are the costs to register my son or
daughter?
The cost to register your child is $295 (Football), $200
(Flag Football). $250 (Cheerleading) and $200 (Flag Cheerleading).
What other commitments are expected of the
parents during the season?
At the registration each family is required to sign up for
at least one committee. Participation on this committee is not
optional and must be fulfilled to ensure the continued playing status of
your child. There are specific fund-raisers that are mandatory
throughout the season, such as the pizza kit sale.
How many positions are open on each squad?
Generally there are some openings on each squad for both football
players and cheerleaders. The hardest groups to get into for
Football and Cheerleading are the Pee Wee and Super Midget squads which
tend to fill up quickly. But typically the squads have a total of around
25 to 35 players each.
What do I need to bring to registration?
If the player or cheerleader did not play or cheer with the
Packers last season, you will need to bring a copy of their birth
certificate which will be retained by the Packers. One parent or legal
guardian must also be present to sign applicable forms.
Where do the Packers practice?
Practice is held at the Alexander
Park Fields off of Hillsborough.
When is practice?
The standard TBYFL rules have practices starting mid July,
practice will be on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday nights. All weekday
practices will be from 6.30-8.30 pm. The only time we will change the
regular practice days and times are in cases of make-up practices or
special situations.
Please Note: During the first 4 weeks of practice the practices are on
EVERY day of the week Monday – Friday. This helps the teams get ready for
the season.
When and where are the games played
at?
All games are scheduled on Saturday's in either the morning
or afternoon. The first game is scheduled around Mid August Majority of
our games are played at Skyway Park which is at the end of the Veterans
Expressway off Memorial Hwy. (next to Rocky Point Golf Course). We may
play a game or two at Oldsmar or Progress Village during the regular season.
