Coppell Youth Football

March 1 – April 2

Registration for Coppell Youth Football Spring 7 on 7 season is underway. The organization currently is recruiting all boys and girls from kindergarten through 6th to register to play flag football with the CYFA. 

7-on-7 is a fun, competitive, non-contact method of playing football. The offense consists primarily of passing plays, with running only allowed on 3rd and 4th downs. The intent of 7-on-7 is to help develop the skills associated with passing, catching, and running routes on offense and coverage on defense. 7-on-7 is played on a 40 minute running clock without pads and receivers are downed with one-hand touch.

Interested families can visit our website at coppellyouthfootball.org to find out more information about our upcoming season and about our association. Teams will fill up fast so don't wait to register. Registration will close April 2nd.
