: fall tackle
Fall tackle is played from June 1st to December 1st. The season roughly beaks down as follows:
-
June 1st to August 1st(approximately) teams take to the field at least twice per week for regular practices. If not geared up by the 1st, they will be by the 15th. Coach often choose to have the first few practices without gear.
-
August 1st. Exhibition and tournaments. Teams will participate in seveeral tournaments or exhibition games. The tournements are 3 to 4, 20 to 30 minute running time games that are played against 2 to 4 other teams over a 3 to 3 hour period. The tournaments give both players and coaches and opportunity to view themselves, the team, and some of their opponents in a game-like setting. Unlike Other sports, these tournaments are hosted and paid for by the host team and involve no extra costs.
-
September 1st to November 1st. The regular season where teams will play full games, usually once per week on a Saturday or Sunday for a total of ten games. The younger the team, the younger the start. Although we try to get every team the chance to play "under the Lights" at least once during the season. Depending on whether or not there is a balance of teams a team may play on Friday night and atoms, peew wees or JB's may see one wednesday night game.
-
November 1st the League playoffs begin. The top 8 to 12 teams may make the playoffs with the team losing a game being done for the year. Very successful teams may make it to the Provincial Championship game one the last weekend of November of the 1st weekend of December.
