IMPORTANT FOOTBALL REGISTRATION INFORMATION
TEAM FORMATION:
CFSA classifies football participants into three categories to ensure a fair and organized team placement process.
· Returning Players have competed in the previous 2024 fall football season.
· New Players are experiencing CFSA football for the first time. Previously Registered Players who did not play in the previous season but are returning to CFSA will be treated as New Players.
· Opt-Out players played in the previous season but do not want to return to their previous team.
Team assignments for new players are based on their residential address and zoned elementary school, following the CFSA Team Formation Rules. Private and home-schooled players will be assigned teams based on their zoned public school. New 6th-grade players will be placed according to their Elementary school zone. Requests to be placed on specific teams will not be honored. Friend requests will not be honored.
We encourage early registration because your registration will be time stamped. If we have too many players from any school, a team of neighboring schools will be made. You are not required to attend school in CFISD to participate.
PREVIOUS TEAM LOCK IN: Returning Players registering from the previous season (tackle divisions only) can LOCK IN with the previous team they played on if registering NO LATER THAN April 30, 2025. If these returning players register after this deadline they would be categorized as an Opt-Out Player. No exceptions will be made for registrations after this period.
WAIT LIST REGISTRATION: Wait List Registration will open on June 17th at NO INITIAL COST and will be based on time stamp registration. If a position is available, you will be contacted. If the position is accepted, the player’s account will be invoiced the late registration fee plus a $25 waitlist charge. The invoice must be paid within 24 hours. If the invoice in not paid within this timeline, the invoice will be deleted, and we will move onto other waitlist registrants.
REGISTRATION FEES INCLUDE: Uniforms (jerseys and pants) officials, clock keepers, field equipment, field maintenance, utilities, etc. All other equipment/accessories are the responsibility of the player’s parent/guardian.
REGISTRATION FEES DO NOT INCLUDE: Equipment expenses (see below) as well as additional expenses (such as team decals, water bottles etc.) will be determined per team. These season extras could be anywhere from $100 - $200 per player. We do encourage sponsorships and fundraising to help with any extra team costs.
UNIFORMS: Each player, including Flag players, must attend a scheduled fitting, to ensure the uniform is sized properly. If the player does not attend a scheduled fitting, the size given at the time of registration will be used. If the uniform doesn’t fit and the player did not attend a scheduled fitting the cost of a new uniform will be the parent’s expense. If you know you will not be able to attend a fitting please consider sizing up.
EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENTS:
