League Details

 
How Does It Work?

It's 8 on 8, 5 men and 3 women on the field at all times. It's no contact, 2-hand touch football. And we keep it exciting for everyone on the team through our three divisions (Sorta Players, Casual and Extremely Casual) and our “female as a primary player” rule. Based on demand, we may add up to one additional level of play. We use the Nike Spiral Tech 1000 Youth Football.

What's the Cost and What's Involved?

Early registration closes on February 24th. Early league fees are $775 for a team of 15 players ($35 for each additional player over 15 - no limit to number of players on your roster) and $70 for individuals (we'll get everyone on a team). Regular registration closes on March 16th or earlier if the league sells out. Regular league fees are $875 for a team and 80 for individuals. ZogSports donates a percentage of our profit to charity.

Fee Includes:

  • Field fees
  • 7 Regular season games
  • One head referee/game
  • Organized Happy Hours at local bars after the game
  • League administration
  • "Prize Money" from our sponsors donated to the winning team's charity of choice

Where Are We Playing?

Games will take place at the following field:

 Please note that game times, locations and dates mentioned are a very good guideline, but may change slightly based on the final permits received.

What Are the Rules?

This is a fun, recreational touch football league, so we want everyone to play, stay involved and stay safe. The key rules are:

  • 8-on-8, no more than 5 men and no less than 3 woman on the field at all times
  • No contact, 2-hand touch
  • 2 completions for a first down
  • Limit of 3 "earned" first downs per drive
  • A woman must be a "Primary Player" within 3 consecutive plays
  • Scoring - 6 points for touchdowns and your decision to go for 1- or 2-point conversion

What Are the Levels of Play?

  • SORTA PLAYERS - Pretty good athlete, maybe played competitive sports in high school or college. Leave it all out on the field while still having a good time.
  • CASUAL - Decent athlete? Looking to have fun with friends or meet new people? This is the division for you.
  • EXTREMELY CASUAL - Not completely sure how the complicated game of football works? This division is for beginners looking to get out there and have some fun.

 

ZogSports will try to accommodate all team and individual player requests for Division, but cannot guarantee all requests. We will not place a team or player more than 1 division (above or below) their original request.

Don't Have a Team? Join as an Individual!

We here at ZogSports try to make it as easy as 1-2-3 to get you on the field.  If you want to play one of our many great sports but don't have a team, just register as an individual and we'll put you on a team of other individuals!
