Practices start in early July.    Practice may be held 5 days a week during the summer.

All coaches/teams may not practice every day, therefore we ask that you participate in our "Be In The Know" program.  "Be In The Know" is another way for us to communicate with you beyond in person.  We will use email, text, the Knights website, and our Facebook page to keep you up to date about the Knights.

To join "Be In The Know":  Subscribe to Text Alerts by texting MOCOKNIGHTS to 84483

Practice hours are 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm at Shady Grove Middle School. There may be practice on Saturday (during the summer). Once school starts, practice will be held three nights per week from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Practice days and times are subject to the discretion of the Montgomery County Knights.

The regular season will run through October.  Playoffs can run through the last week of November.

Parents are requested to stay during practice.  However, due to safety concerns and insurance reasons, parents, relatives and children watching practice are NOT permitted on the practice fields.  Please stay off of the filed during the entire practice session.  

The first couple weeks of football practice are primarily physical conditioning - without pads or helmet.  Players are required to wear their cleats, gym shorts and mouthpiece.  Afterwards; players will need to come in their full practice gear (see below).
