Your athlete will receive an official Gridiron uniform if purchased during registration that will include a jersey top, matching shorts, and flag belt (if you're registering for flag football). And at the end of the season, playoff champs receive special awards!

How can I become a coach?
We're honored to have all volunteer coaches made up of moms, dads, and Gridiron alums who want to give back to their communities.
If you're interested in joining their ranks, find a league near you! During the registration process, you can volunteer to be a head coach, assistant coach, or team manager. If you’ve already registered your athlete, you can still volunteer by selecting “Volunteer” in the Gridiron Football portal and completing the next steps. Here is an easy step-by-step video tutorial of the process.
If you're already a coach of a team, you can also register a full or partial team of players. From the registration dashboard, click ‘Register a Team’ or from the side menu, select ‘Registration and then ‘Team Registration’. Please note, by registering a team you are volunteering as Head Coach.
Note: All Gridiron coaches will need to pass a National Background Check.
