Program Philosophy
The mission of all Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sports programs is
to promote a fun, yet challenging environment in which participants are
introduced
to and taught the basics of a given sport. The program is
strictly
recreational in nature and emphasizes equal opportunity for involvement
and participation.

Program Format
All league games will be played on Saturdays and Tuesday evenings (if
needed). Note: Saturday game times may coincide with Husker
football. All teams will play a round robin schedule and are
guaranteed
a minimum of six games. League play will begin in early
September.
1st & 2nd Grade: Games are played 7 vs. 7
with a coach or a
designated adult as the quarterback. No
game scores or league standings are kept. All children will have
the opportunity to play all the positions
on both offense
and defense.
3rd & 4th Grade: Games are played 7 vs.
7. No game scores or
league standings are kept. All
children will have the opportunity to play all
positions on both offense and defense.
5th & 6th Grade: Games are played 7 vs.
7. Game scores are
kept but no league standings.
Coaches will begin to develop players for specific
positions while still giving them the opportunity to play all positions.
Equipment
Tennis shoes or football shoes with molded rubber cleats can be worn
by the players. No metal or hard plastic cleats! Footballs,
flag belts, and kicking tees will be provided. One mouth guard
for each player will also be provided.
Uniforms
Youth participating in Wahoo Parks and Recreation youth sports need
to have
two uniform t-shirts, one red and one blue. The playing schedule
dictates which color shirt to wear for each game. These shirts
are used for all youth sport programs and are available in a variety of
youth and adult sizes. They are available for purchase at the
Civic Center.
Rosters
Team rosters are formed via random selection. Parents may request
their son be placed on a team with one other child for
legitimate carpooling
purposes. Some car pooling requests may not occur. This
information needs to be indicated on
the registration form (no exceptions). Once teams are formed,
coaches are
responsible for contacting players on their rosters to set up practices
and distribute information.
Coaches
Wahoo Parks and Recreation utilizes volunteer coaches
for all youth sport programs. All head coaches are required to
attend the coaches meeting or meet with the league director.
Instruction on general coaching philosophy and principles as well as
sport-specific information will be discussed.
Schedules
Playing schedules will be available after August 24th on this
web page.
Miscellaneous
Participants and their parents/guardians should be aware that there is
a risk of injury during participation in Wahoo Parks and Recreation
youth
sports due to the inherent nature of the activities. Individuals
participate in Parks and Recreation youth sports programs at their own
risk .
