Program Philosophy


The Forks Twp. Youth Football Program is a recreational athletic program that is open to players in K through 7th grade.  Team levels are arranged by age and weight in accordance with the by-laws of the Suburban Youth Football League. Forks offers instructional flag and tackle teams as well as three levels of competitive tackle. Athletes will focus on learning the basic fundamentals of football including running, throwing, catching, and blocking.  Basic football rules and fundamentals of the game will be taught throughout the season on offense, defense, and special teams. Athletes will learn formations and strategies of football as well as the importance of teamwork.

Mission Statement


The game of football is just a game. The number one reason children participate in youth sports is to have fun. If you take the fun out of sports, you take the child out of sports. It is detrimental to the player if there is too much pressure placed on them too early to achieve a result rather than simply experiencing the sheer joy of a youth game. Let your kids know that it is okay to make mistakes. It is achieved by teaching the skills, rules and vocabulary of the game. Finally, it is achieved by teaching sportsmanship. Learning about winning and losing, playing by the rules, and respecting an opponent are just as important as learning football skills. The Forks Twp. Football Program wants you to respect the game of football, respect the players, the opponents, the referee, and the parents. Players should come out of their experience as better people, better citizens, and better football players.
