REGISTRATION PAPERWORK
The 2010 Registration Packet is now available. Click on "2010 Registration Packet" above to download. Once printed, read and follow all instructions carefully when completing the forms and bring them with you to registration along with your child’s ORIGINAL birth certificate with a raised seal (no hospital birth certificates will be accepted). No NEW registration packet will be accepted without the required birth certificate.
Every child participating in our program MUST have the following paperwork turned in prior to the start of our season:
An ORIGINAL birth certificate with a raised seal is required. (No hospital birth certificates will be accepted). If you are a returning player/cheerleader, your birth certificate will be kept on file so you do not have to submit this every year. For a minimal fee (usually $4.00 to $5.00) your town hall can provide you with a certified copy for our organization to keep. If your child was a participant in our program in the past, we will have his/her original birth certificate on file. Please make a note of this when submitting the registration packet.
You will need to complete the 2010 Participant Contract & Parental Consent Form (Page 2).
You will need to complete the Parental/Guardian Permission and Waiver Form (Page 3).
You will need to have the 2010 Physical Fitness and Medical History Form (Pages 4 and 5) completed. Parents must complete the first form (page 4)and a physician must complete, sign and stamp the second form (page 5). No other form will be accepted. Forms must be dated on or after January 1, 2010.
You will also need to submit a copy of his/her FINAL report card from the 2009-2010 school year. Since report cards are not issued until June, this is the only item allowed to be missing from your packet when you return the packet to us. However, a copy of your child’s final report card must be received before his/her first practice or your child will not be allowed to participate.
If Billerica Pop Warner does not have all mandatory paperwork prior to the start of the season, your child will not be placed on a team, issued any equipment, or allowed onto the playing field until all paperwork is received.
APPAREL/EQUIPMENT
All apparel/equipment for football players will be provided with the exception of cleats. Football cleats are required and can be purchased for a minimal amount of money at Payless Shoe, K-Mart, Wal-Mart, Target or any sporting goods store. All apparel for cheerleaders will be provided with the exception of cheering sneakers, lollies (undergarment worn under skirts) and bodysuits; however, these can be purchased through Billerica Pop Warner at the appropriate time.
BINGO/FUNDRAISING
In addition to the registration fee, there will be a required fundraiser. (Details will be available at registration.)
Billerica Pop Warner hosts Bingo as a fundraiser every Wednesday evening at the Billerica Elks. We host this fundraiser to keep our registration fees low. Without this Bingo fundraiser, our registration fees would approximately cost each child $250.00 instead of $85.00.
Every parent is responsible for working ONE Bingo beginning April 1, 2010. There are two shifts to work: the first shift (which is from 5:00pm to 9:00pm) or the second shift (which is from 7:00pm to close). If you work the first shift, you need to arrive as close to 5:00pm as possible. If you work the second shift, closing is usually around 10:00pm. You will be given a date as to when you are responsible to work your Bingo.
Important Note: Upon arrival please check in with a Billerica Pop Warner Staff Member. In order to receive credit for working your Bingo, you will need to sign in. (If you fail to sign in, you will not receive credit.) Don't worry if you have never worked at Bingo, there are staff members available to show you what is expected.
If you do not fulfill your Bingo obligations, you will be billed an additional $200.00 and not be allowed to register the following year until that invoice is paid.
PRACTICES/GAMES
All practices will begin on Monday, August 2nd, either at the Lampson Field or at the high school. You will be notified as to the location of practice. Practices are held Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays before Labor Day. Once school begins, practices are decreased to Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. Practices are usually held from 5:30pm until 8:00pm.
Games are held on Saturdays for the F Teams and Sundays for all remaining teams. Game time is dependent on which team your son/daughter is placed on.
