Mile High Football League

***Announcing Spring 2011 Youth Tackle Football***

 ARE YOU READY for Some Football?

Full Contact, Full Pads…All the Fun!

Mile High Football League is looking for players for our spring football league…

Now that two seasons been played don’t miss our 2011 spring season as we bring Youth Tackle Football to the Denver metropolitan communities.   Players are placed on teams based on residency or on teams nearest their city.

For the 2011 season we'll be offering two divisions, Division I for competitive teams and a Division II for recreational teams. Competitive teams are formed by individual coaches or associations who select their own players and provide their own equipment. Individual Registering Players may try out for an MHFL area competitive team.  Recreational teams are formed by the league with players registering as Individuals will be placed on teams in their city or city nearest them.  Independent recreational teams may register to play in our recreational division. 

A playoff system will be in effect to determine the metropolitan’s Super Bowl champions in Division I and II.

Division II is considered our recreational league where most of our Individual Registering Players play. Individual Players may tryout for the MHFL Division I Competitive area teams.  Attempts will be made to form D-1 competitive teams from D-2 recreational players who wish to play competitively. Please indicate on your registration if you wish to be informed of tryout dates and times for your area. Note: If your area is unable to fill a competitive team, then your child will still be assigned to a D-2 recreational team nearest your residency.
