Saturday practices are from 10:00am to 1:00pm every week throughout the season. Sunday practices are from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm up until the games begin. All games and practices are at the Oceanside High School fields. There is an 8 game season beginning in early October. Games for Pee Wee's and Senior's are on Sundays at either 12:00 pm or 1:30 pm. Junior's games are both played at 10:30am on Sundays.
The season ends on the weekend before Thanksgiving.

There will be 3 divisions. The "PEE WEE" Division is for boys 7 and 8 yrs.old (4 teams). The "JUNIOR" Division is for boys 9 and 10 yrs.old (6 teams). The "SENIOR" Division is for boys 11 and 12 yrs. old (4 teams). Teams are drafted prior to the first practice and usually have about 17-22 players each.

There is an official weigh in when equipment is issued at the start of the season.

Yes, it is full contact, but there are many, many rules in ALL divisions for safety reasons. There are NO punt or kickoff returns. The Stallions provide top line football equipment for maximum protection and the players are all taught how to play safely.

There are NO guarantees that players will be together AT ANY LEVEL. All requests will be noted on the draft lists, but in an effort to balance both talent and weight, they may not be met. Brothers will be kept together if requested.

Yes, we request that the restrooms are open on Sundays. We also run the concession stand, with the usual assortment of refreshments and tasty morsels! Also available will be Stallions shirts, hats, jackets etc!!!!!

All you need to bring are: cleets (non metal), supporter/cup (To ALL practices and games!), mouthpiece (available for $1 at the weigh in). ALL players are RESPONSIBLE for their equipment throughout the season. Failure to return equipment on the specified equipment return nights will result in a $250 charge. PLEASE take care of and return your equipment!

YES! The Stallions pride themselves in giving EVERY boy the opportunity to play in EVERY game. We are not about winning. We are about giving every boy who shows up and works at it, the opportunity to play! Some positions require certain special skills and play knowledge. Weight restrictions will come into play as well when positions are assigned.

Yes. Fall baseball/soccer is on Saturday and Sundays - SO IS FOOTBALL! There will inevitably be conflicts when boys try to play football and another sport. The players will learn how to play football on Saturdays, progressing from week to week and it is important to DO YOUR BEST to try and make every practice.
Missing practices or games can affect playing time.

Yes, but understand that it is a major commitment to do so. The Middle School usually practices 4-5 nights a week and plays a game per week. Along with the Stallion's weekends, be prepared for football, 7 days a week for 3 months!

Game recaps are posted each week under each team's home page. If you notice that game recaps are NOT being submitted, please contact your head coach and volunteer to help! Recaps are usually posted within a couple days. They should not be too looooooooooooooooong and they should, throughout the season, mention EVERY player on the team!
NOTE: They are edited and censored! Words like destroyed or killed should be avoided!!!

SCHOOL WORK, FIRST - FOOTBALL, SECOND - EVERYTHING ELSE, A DISTANT THIRD!!!!!
