Important Information about the 2011 Season !!!

Parents, 

The BYC Football Committee continues to evaluate our current football program and making changes that will allow us to continue to have a successful program.  I know that some of you have already registered on-line for this upcoming football season.  Below are a few updates... 

• NEW EQUIPMENT HAS ARRIVED:  We ordered new football helmets and shoulder pads this year. They have already come in and will be given out on a first come, first serve basis.  
• EARLY UNIFORM (helmets, pads, etc) HANDOUTS
  • Will be held on Monday, June 6th and Wednesday, June 8th from 7pm-9:30pm at Gillespie Park (200 Kirk Road, Garnet Valley, PA 19060). 
  • Registration is currently open online at www.brandywineyouthclub.com.
  • Please note that you will NOT be able to register at the Early Uniform Handout
  • Please try to register early to take advantage of the Early Uniform Handout.  This also allow the BYC Football Committee to assess the number of boys participating so we can better determine our coaching and team needs prior to August.
• DELAYED START OF FOOTBALL CAMP
  • Based on feedback from parents last year, the BYC Football Committee has decided to push back the start of football camp to Monday, August 8th (instead of Monday, August 1st)
  • We thought it would be better to give all families a week off this year since there are a lot of families whose son/daughter play other sports throughout the summer and then do not get a break before football starts.
  • However, this means is that we only have 3 weeks before school begins for practice. Bert Bell allows up to 10 hours of practice per week prior to school starting.  Depending upon which team your son/daughter is on, you may or may not be practicing Monday - Friday in August once we get started.
