Football players without required protective gear will stand on sideline. Cheerleaders with hard decorative items in their hair or improper shoes will not cheer All volunteers must check in with Spring Alexander. Non-adult volunteers must register with Spring Alexander for approved work assignments and tracking of volunteer hours. Secondary coaches must remain off the field and keep sideline players behind the line. NO PARENTS allowed on field or in cheer zone. Please hold all questions to the end or beginning of practice. If your issue can not wait on game day, speak to a non-coaching Blitz board member. The coaches are done overseeing the players when they are taken to concessions after home games and after huddle dismissal at away games. Parents are responsible for the kids before and after games. The Blitz DOR is the only person to confer with a Referee or board member in his absence. Players are not to warm up on game day until the coach assembles his team. This includes cheerleaders.

Birth Certificates Reminders

If you have not already done so, please collect your child’s birth certificate. PLEASE SEE TAMMY JACKSON or look out the Blitz Board table during practice.
