LOGAN SPORTS

LOGAN SPORTS believes in competition, so most of our Youth Football Tournaments are unlimited, meaning, there is NO POSITION RESTRICTIONS, there is NO WEIGHT RESTRICTIONS!!!

 

All that we require is that any team that participates in our Youth Football Tournaments submit their official leagues roster and only those players can play in our tournament.

 

Our philosophy is that the coaches can take the same players that they had all year and now utilize these players in a more effective way. Coaches get to actually see what their players can do in different positions, coaches can better use their coaching skills against different competition and coaches can get a glimpse of how these players will play at the next level.

 

Our tournaments allows coaches and teams to gauge themselves against other talent that they may not normally see during regular league play.

 

Most league teams play the same teams year after year with players being restricted at each level.

Teams and players become predictable because you've played the same kids and teams year after year.

 

We believe that restricting a player to a certain position or title,  pyschologically limits them on the field.

Most kids either grow, gain or lose weight every year and to tell that kid that because he is a little heavy, he can only play on the line, pigeon  holes him and restricts his growth for the future.

 

When I coached, I allowed all of my players to play ever position. They naturally fell into the position(s) that they were good at and was able to develop faster.

 

By them experiencing playing every position, they got a true feel of the game.

Players that thought that they wanted to play certain positions were put in those positions in practice and experienced it first hand. Some had second thoughts, others were natural at the position.

 

Another reason why we believe in non restictions is because come game day, you never know who is not going to be there. This way, you could insert any player in any position because they practiced all positions and as a team, you cover one another.

 

We just feel that it allows the coaches more versatility and allows the players a chance to grow naturally.

 

Some may not have the same outlook, but we believe in competition, we see this as a chance for coaches and teams to really seehow they stack up against the competiton.

 

Player Safety is also a major concern. We also consider all safety issues involved and recognize that injuries can happen in any sport. So we have player and event insurance in place and also require that each team submit a copy of their leagues insurance with their registration packet.

 

If one of our event staff game monitors suspect that one of our participants has suffered an injury during play, they will address the issue with the coaches, parents (if available) and medical staff on hand.

 

We will take all precautionary measures within reason to ensure player safety.
