Tackle Program 2016 cost: $300
Practices begin August 1 and will be held at Radnor High School 4 nights/week (Monday through Thursday for 2- 2.5 hours until Labor Day). After Labor Day weekend, practice is held to 2-3 nights per week (usually 2 hours, but varies by team).
Games normally begin 4 weeks after the start of practice and can be either Saturday or Sunday for 10 weeks of regular season games. The schedule is determined by the Bux-Mont League and is not released to us until mid-late August.
More information about this program is under the FAQ tab.
**The Radnor Young Raiders plan to field tackle teams at these levels. The weight ranges have been updated to reflect 2016 changes at the Pop Warner National level. Any player who is turned away at the start of the season due to an insufficient number of players at their level will be issued a refund. Here is the link to the complete 2016 Pop Warner age/weight matrix:
