Youth Six-Man Football Programs

[ModeratorMike]

I had an email earlier today asking about information on starting a youth six-man football program in their area. Since we don't have any in our area I thought I'd reach out to y'all to find out if there are leagues like this across the state. If so, could y'all share some information here that I could pass on to this person, and to others who may ask about this in the future? I'll also forward this topic to them if/when it gets any replies that may be helpful.

They mentioned Top of Texas football, so I assume they're wanting to start a six-man program similar to that.

Thank you coach! I sent them the link to this thread so maybe they'll get in touch with you with some questions soon.

It'd be nice to see something like this going on all across the state. I think it'd be great for the game of six-man football, teaching kids the basics early, but also just for getting kids out of the house and away from their phones, if only for a few hours a week!

We have a West Texas youth 6-man league. It's been going strong for many years. Water Valley, O'Donnell, Sands, Klondike, Wellman, Borden County, Hermliegh, Grady, Garden City, and Sterling City since they are dropping down next year and their JH has been playing 6-man. Look them up on Facebook.

Spur has been doing this for close to 20 years - kids from Valley down to Aspermont, and some east/west come in. Well run, fundamentally based. A lot of HS 6-man All-Stars have come out of this league over the years - and it's not about "ring" culture.

Motley Co has one they play teams from spur valley and all the way up to Groom I believe. It’s a very successful as Motley Co has produced a lot of great RBs over the years like Bradley Brown and Isaiah archer head coach of Newcastle to Austin Taylor and now Cull Lawrence and many more in the years

 

[Coach Spaulding]

We have built local partnerships with teams from SA and Austin Tx as well as surrounding areas like Waco, Corpus, or surrounding areas. We compete in TAIAO for both JV/Varsity & JH.

May is in youth football with several area 6 man schools, Throckmorton, Woodson, Ranger, Newcastle, Strawn, Gorman, Gordon, Sidney, Rising Star, Richland Springs, Jonesboro, Panther Creek, Rochelle, Zephyr, and Lometa. The youth program has included so many schools that it had to be divided into different divisions (North, South, Central). It is a blast to watch the kids play!

We've got a 6 man youth league up here in the Panhandle, we call it Top of Texas. White Deer, McLean, Happy, Claude, Silverton, Lefors. 8u, 10u, and 12u . Pretty competitive , good turnout.
