Mounds View Youth Football

Mounds View's 7th and 8th Grade(and 7th/8th combined Limited)  teams will participate in the North Suburban Football League.  This league features teams from fourteen communities all across the northern suburbs.  In 2010, there were 28 teams in 7th grade,  27 in 8th grade and 14 Limited Weight teams.  For 2011, we have added additional teams to our league, including Woodbury, Eastridge and four Minneapolis Teams.  Games are played by high school rules with the exception being the clock.  10-minute, stop time quarters are used.  There are no defensive restricitons or weight limits of any kind in these leagues.

The North Suburban Football League also plays what is called a "mixed weight" league.  There is no longer a minimum or a maximum weight in their open league. 

The league offers an option of a "limited weight" league (no players over 130 pounds at the start of the season).   Each year, assuming that the league offers this as an option, Mounds View football will offer this at sign up.  If an adequate number of players express the desire to play in this type of a league, and this can be accomodated without sacrificing the ability to form teams in the open league, Mounds View Youth Football will try to form a team for a limited weight league.  In 2010, Mounds View entered one regular weight team in 7th, one in 8th grades and two 7th and 8th combined in the weight limit league.

We reserve the right to limit players in the weigh limit to ensure we have enough to field a 7th grade and 8th gradeREGULAR weight team.  Remember, a limited weight player can always play with the regular weight team, but a player that is over 130 cannot play in the limited weight.
