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  two of our divisions (High Casual and Casual) and our “female as a primary player” rule.  

 

What's the Cost and What's Included?

Early/regular registration will open August 24th/September 3rd and close September 2nd/September 17th, or earlier if the league sells out.  League fees are $1150/$1250 for a team of 15 players ($35 for each additional player over 15 - no limit to number of players on your roster) and $110/$120 for individuals (we'll get everyone on a team). ZogSports donates a percentage of our profit to charity.

Fee Includes:

  • 6 Regular Season Games (no scrimmage)
  • One head referee/game
  • 50% of the teams will qualify for the heart-wrenching single elimination playoff tournament
  • One t-shirt per person on the roster
  • Field fees
  • Equipment
  • "Prize Money" from our sponsors donated to the winning team's charity of choice
  • League administration
  • Organized Happy Hours at local bars after the game

 

    When Does It Start and When Are the Games?
    • Games will be played on Monday nights between 6:30pm-10:30pm.

    • Regular season games begin Monday, September 27th.

     

       

      Where Are We Playing?

      Games will take place at the following fields.  Since the amount of field space we have at each field varies, we try and give all teams an even amount of games at each location based on the permitted time we receive.

      • Riverbank State Park (138th Street and Riverside Drive)

      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:

      • 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

      Levels of Play
      • HIGH CASUAL - Average athletes looking for a competitive and social atmosphere

        •  

       

      ZogSports will try to accommodate all team and individual player requests for Level of Play, but cannot guarantee all requests.  We will not place an individual player on a team with other people that registered more than one level (above or below) his/her registration level.  In order to create the best possible experience for the whole league ZogSports will place returning team in the division we feel most appropriate.
