Registration Begins Saturday

Football registration begins this Saturday!  Our club is tracking 71 named players that have either played with us before or expressed an interest. We expect to have four teams - one will play in the Blue Valley League, and three will play in FCCJC.

Not all of those 71 will play - but others will sign up that we don't know about today, so we could certainly approach 70 players. I believe that we will have the largest fifth grade football club in the Kansas City area.

The first FCCJC sign-up is this Saturday from 10 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. out at the Heritage Park football complex at 162nd and Pflumm.

Coach Darius Lecthenberger sent an E-Mail to the Blue Valley league prospects this morning about their sign up process, which also begins this Saturday.

Below are the details - be sure you sign up for the league in which you intend to play.

Blue Valley League Sign Up Process (Swinford)

1. Register on-line. On this site - http://bvfc.goalline.ca/ there is a menu option on the left that says On-Line registration. You can pay the league fee ($210) by credit card during the registration. Be sure to list Coach Swinford as the coach.
2. Attend the equipment checkout on Saturday, May 22nd, 8-11am, at the offices of Blue Valley Football Club, located at 6730 W. 153rd St., Overland Park, KS 66223
1. If you can't make that equipment check-out, there will be four other equipment check-out sessions at Lakewood Middle School throughout the summer (6/12, 6/26, 7/10, and 7/17).
2. Be sure to bring your receipts from on-line registration to the equipment check-out that you attend
3. If you are a new player to the Blue Valley Football Club, you will need to bring BOTH a copy of your birth certificate AND a current grade report or student ID. You must have both items to register with the league, as they have both age and grade specific registration.
3. If you have any questions at all about the process or what you need, E-Mail Coach Darius Lechtenberger at darius@lm-energy.com.

FCCJC Sign Up Process (Adam)

1. Attend one of the five registration Saturdays at Heritage Football Complex at 162nd and Pflumm. The dates include this Saturday, 5/22, as well as 6/12, 6/26, 7/10, and 7/24. They go from 10 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., and the lines can be long early.
2. If you are a returning player, bring your FCCJC player card to registration. If you are a new player (or can't find your player card) bring a copy of your birth certificate and a grade card or student ID proving your grade.
3. There are three potential fees that you can pay at registration
1. Raffle tickets - these are yours as part of your registration price, available to sell to family and and friends if you prefer, or to buy outright at registration for your own use. They cost $160, and if you would rather sell them and pay later, the team will collect the money for them in mid August. Whether you buy them yourself or sell them to others, you can use them to enter a drawing for some pretty good prizes passed out in mid September.
2. Equipment rental - if you will  be renting equipment (shoulder pads and helmet) from the league, the rental price is $65.00. If you have your own equipment, you should bring it with you to registration to be checked and verified.
3. Physical - a doctor's physical is required. You may use your own physician as long as the physical has been performed no earlier than February 1, 2010. Or, if it is more convenient, you may use the doctor present at the registration. The fee for the registration physical is $20.
4. At registration you will be weighed and fitted for any equipment you rent. See more specific information right here or contact Coach Adam at any time at CoachJimAdam@gmail.com
