LWAA Pop Warner Football and Cheerleading

Registration Requirements

When Registering, you must complete the following forms. The Registration Form and the Physical Form. (note- the Physical Form requires Doctors' signature). We will also need a copy of a birth certificate at registration. We will need two copies of the final report card from the end of the 2009-2010 school year prior to first practice.

We are planning on teams for boys and girls on Midget, Jr. Midget, Pee Wee, Jr Pee Wee, Mitey Mite Football Teams and Cheer Squads. Email for up to date info

For the 2010 season- all Football Players and Cheerleaders will be assigned to teams. Requests for placement to a specific team will not be honored if a child belongs elsewhere.

And unlike other programs- the uniforms the girls buy, the girls keep! They can trade in at "trade in" days in following years.

There are 2 sets of requirements to play Pop Warner Football. A child must fit into an age/weight category, and all players and cheerleaders must maintain a D average or better in school. See below for football and cheer divisions. Large fontas are the ages usually placed in those divisions, other ages would be placed there because of weight. Children will have most success playing in lowest division possible. Refunds will only be issued should we not be able to field a team at a particular level, or in cases of medical problem or relocation. Requests may be made by emailing board@lwsports.org and stating child's name, and reason for request. Please allow 6 to 8 weeks for review.

*The asterisked (*) provisions in each division are for those leagues/associations that carry “older but lighter” football players. The age of the spirit participant may match the age of the football players in that same division. (i.e., if the league permits a football player to be a 13 year old, older-lighter junior midget, then the spirit squad may also sign-up a 13 year old participant on the corresponding cheer/dance squad.) The spirit participant is matched in age only, weights do not apply. ** 9 year olds will be placed on Junior Pee Wee Cheer squads only if they had cheered the prior year as a Mitey Mite. This is for placement in the 2010 season only.
