Dear Coaches:
We are In the process of forming a New Youth Football League here in the South Plains coming in the fall of 2012.The Ironman Youth Football League(IYFL). We will have a Six Man League for 3rd-6th grades.We are not sure @ this point on how we will divide the six man age groups because some towns have 6th graders play in junior high. We will also have a Dance Team Competition for the all teams that have cheerleaders or a dance team to be Held @ the End of the Season. This will be a Traveling League meaning you play half of your games @ Home & Play the other Half on the road.This league is being formed to give the small town teams a chance to be on a even playing field. This will be done by playing teams that are similar in size & a chance to play in front of your home town.There are some leagues here in the South Plains that are designed just to benefit the teams from where the league is based out of. This league is designed to prepare every kid for Junior High & High School Football.
We will have a informational Meeting on Sunday January 15th 3pm@ Furrs Caferteria 6001 Slide Road Lubbock TX In the Red Raider Room. The meeting will be to discuss our vision for the league & to get ideas from everyone so we can get started on forming the league. We will use the ideas that come from the meeting to create our Rules & By Laws @ A Later date. I Have Interest from Several Teams In The Area. We are looking to have teams from Wilson,New Home ,Borden County,Meadow Ropes,Odonnell, Wellman Union, Lorenzo,Anton,Whiteface,Amherst,Kingdom Prep,Christ the King,Dawson,Loop,Lubbock Harmony,Southland & where ever else sixman football may be played in the South Plains.

Sounds great!
as long as you are really
just preparing the kids to play.
ie.- fundamentals only.
Good luck finding that many pee-wee daddies/coaches(?)
who won't beat the kids up with a winning only philosophy.

(IMO, Most professional coaches
spend an exorbitant amount of time
correcting the erroneous teaching
their players received at an early age.
For example,
one of my 6th gr. students told me his coach(?)
told him that the more scratches he has on his helmet
means he's that much more of a man.)

But,
I'm sure you won't let that happen out there.
