Atom - 2022 Atom Tackle
Atom Tackle Program Information
This is the first division that introduces Tackle Football to our players. With the game being played on a smaller field, with fewer players, each players opportunity to touch the ball and be involved in the play is increased. The focus will be on developing skills, fundamentals, and teamwork while staying active and having fun in an inclusive environment.
Gameplay: 6-a-side football on a modified field.
Eligibility: 8-10 years old, must turn 8 but not turn 11 in the calendar year. Open to all genders!
Spring Session: Full tackle will be offered in May/June as an introduction to football. 2 Practices a week.
Practice: Practices begin in May-June with 2 practices a week. No Football in July. Practices will increase to 3 practices a week starting in August. Practices are held at the Bethel Church Clubhouse and field. Located at 298 Bethel Dr, Sherwood Park, AB T8H 2C5
Games: One game per week. Game locations are in the City of Edmonton and surrounding areas.
