Dear Parents:

As active members of the Williamsburg community and the WJAA, we are starting a flag football/football skills club.  This program will benefit not only our young athletes but also our football program (7-12). The mission is to help equip young athletes with a solid foundation in the fundamentals and overall knowledge of football. The 6 week program will allow athletes to practice twice a week for 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Our primary goal is to make learning football fun. As you know, in order for this to happen each child must be involved.  All athletes will be given the opportunity to learn each position.  Our club will stress the basic fundamentals of the sport.  We will include handouts and drills that players can work on at home.  Athletes will learn in a positive, friendly, yet competitive atmosphere.  Varsity level coaches, school staff and Williamsburg High School football players will contribute to the coaching of your children.  We will stress the 3 D’s – DESIRE -  DETERMINATION – DEDICATION.

This is not a tackle/contact pee wee football program.  Athletes will not be playing games against other schools.  We will play games (7on7) against each other during the last 15 minutes of are skills practices and we are planning on having flag nights at both halftime of a Friday Night Varsity Game and Saturday Night Flag Night at the high school varsity football field.  This program is for interested boys and girls.  Please fill out the information below and return to your child’s teacher as soon as possible.  If you have questions feel free to contact either Tim Bogan (937-444-3270).
