ARE YOU AGED 10-19?
It’s not just over 18’s who play American Football; Younger people can play for the Plymouth Admirals Youth Team
You can play for the Plymouth Admirals Youth Team!
Ages 10-14 play Flag Football, a non-contact game that uses all the skills of the game, but without all that equipment on. It’s a little bit like tag-rugby, but with American Football rules!
Ages 14-19 play American Football just like on TV! The Admirals can lend you helmets, shoulder pads and leg pads, so that’s nearly everything you need.
All you need to bring is:
Comfortable sporty clothes that can get dirty (maybe tracksuit bottoms and a t-shirt)
Football/rugby boots and trainers (sometimes we go indoors)
A gumshield if you have one (we can give you one if you don’t have one)
Some clean clothes and wash stuff for after training
Adam Barnard, Alex Toogood, Gareth Wetherill, Dan Tapson, Malcom Edyvene, Matt Allen and Matt Taylor are just a few examples of Admirals who started off playing flag and kitted for the Admirals Youth Team! All these guys are now regular starters on the Admirals Senior Team.
Sounds GREAT doesnt it!
At the moment the youth team run a monthly Saturday day camp, and EVERYBODY is more than welcome!
The camps run from 10am-3pm, so arrive at about 9.30am if possible. The cost for the whole day, including borrowing any kit, is £10.
The camps are held at the YMCA Kitto Centre, directions are here:
