Mounds View's 5th and 6th grade teams play in the TCNYFL. This league is made up of teams from ten different communities, stretching from Mounds View to St. Francis. There were 25 5th and 23 6th grade teams participationg in the 2009 season.
Games are played on 100-yard fields, and teams play eleven-man football with no coaches allowed on the field. Games are timed, and are basically played by high school rules.
Each team will play a nine-game regular season, followed by a multiple-tiered, single elimination playoff tournament. The championship games will be held around the end of October, and will likely be held at either Mounds View High School or Irondale High School.
Teams are formed by draft, and each of our teams will have a minimum of approximately 18 - 20 players.
Players who weigh more than 125 pounds in 5th and 135 pounds in 6th at registration will NOT be allowed to carry the ball throughout the entire season.
