Entering into a new sport can be confusing so please read this article to get a general idea of what a typical football season looks like.
Unlike most youth sports programs, registration begins months ahead of the start of the season. Many season preparations for football begin months in advance such as securing practice and game fields, obtaining proper insurances, reconditioning equipment, ordering custom uniforms, etc. All of these things and more require us to be a little ahead of the game to ensure we enjoy a smooth, successful season. You may not hear much after registering until camps begin in late spring/early summer. These are free or donation based and completely optional. Some coaches may choose to start to run their own optional conditioning camps as well. The official season and mandatory practices will start mid-July. The first game is expected to take place the 3rd or 4th Saturday in August. Games are on Saturdays. The season should wrap up just before Thanksgiving, depending on playoffs. We try to host at least 4 home games but travel is required. We may travel to Santa Barbara, Palmdale, Burbank, and anywhere in between. Sometimes a team schedule will have a lot of nearby games and other times there will be lots of travel. It really depends on the League Schedule that is put out by the Pacific Youth Football League. Practices and home games are planned to be held at Ventura High School. Most of the necessary equipment is provided with registration except for a mouth guard and cleats. Most players will purchase their own chin strap as well. Personal safety equipment may be used if inspected and approved by the Ventura Packers Equipment Manager.

Football is a great sport for physical activity, fun, and discipline. Don't worry if your kid has never played, as most kids here haven't so your child is not at a disadvantage. A lot of kids have only picked up a football in the last year to two, and every year we add more new kids to the program.
