Flag Football is available for grades 1-6. This program focuses on the development of motor skills and basic football skills. Running, cutting, positioning, catching are all part of the layered progress. We place athletes into the approprate level based on their grade. The lowest level will be Grades 1-2, then 3-4, with 5-6 being the highest level. Each level will be focused on adding skills to the prior level. Practices will begin in mid to late August with the season going no later than October 30. Games will be scheduled for Sundays.

Parents, please consider volunteering to coach a team so we have a good pool of coaches to maximize our number of potential teams.

Tackle Football will be offered for the grades 5-6 only. Practices start at the beginning of August, with the first games played in late August. The season will go no later than October 30. WYB football is part of COYFL (Central Ohio Youth Football League), which means we will do some local travel as they play other teams in the Worthington vicinity like New Albany, Olentangy, Big Walnut, Westerville, and Gahanna. The exact rules and schedule are established by COYFL. COYFL seeks to keep team rosters small (if possible) to better ensure opportunities for playing time, development, and player interest.

CONCERNED ABOUT CONTACT?
Are you concerned about having your child play a full contact sport like tackle football? It is a legitimate concern, however, WYB takes sports injury seriously by requiring training for all head and assistant coaches for ALL sports. Additionally, WYB Tackle Football hires an athletic trainer to be at our home tackle football games. We take full inventory of our helmets annually to determine which need to be replaced or reconditioned, ensuring proper head protection for all of our tackle athletes. Then, Mr. Jeff Corry (Owner of Undisputed Sports Group) personally fits each tackle football player with their helmet. We also enlist the help of TWHS Head Football Coach Picetti to provide additional training to WYB players and coaches.

WYB provides all equipment necessary for flag football.
WYB supplies jersey, helmet and shoulder pads for Tackle football; Player is responsible for cleats, pants and mouth guard.
