The discount card is our biggest fundraiser each year. We ask that each participant sell a minimum of 10 (parents with multiple children will only be required 5 additional for each child). All money collected and any remaining cards are required to be returned at deadline.
If you have any issues whatsoever, please bring it to the attention of either your parent liaison or a board member. We ask that you not address issues directly with your coach, or with other parents. The goal of CJFL is to make each season the very best for you and your child. Open communication will allow us to continue to do so.
Each player will be provided with a uniform consisting of: Jersey, Pants, Belt, Shoulder Pads, and Helmet. It is mandatory that they be returned. Year after year, uniforms go missing and this is simply not acceptable. If you would like to purchase your child’s jersey, that can be arranged.
The CJFL is run by volunteers. The coaches, the board and you, the parents are what allow the season to run smoothly. Each parent is asked to volunteer for games, to run the gates, concession stand, chains, announce games, etc. We never require that you work during your child’s game time. If you cannot or simply will not volunteer, this year we ask that in lieu of working, you donate soda or other items for the concessions stand.
It is a huge commitment to parent a football player! We appreciate that you support your child’s decision to participate in our program. PLEASE ensure that you have your child at all practices, games, and other events early. The coaches rely on everyone being here on time, every time. If you have an issue with practice times or transportation for your child, please communicate with your parent liaison so the coaching staff can be made aware.
In the event of dangerous weather, please check your indiviual teams communication platform for cancellations prior to practice. We utilize flags to show weather practices will be held. Flags will be placed on the north side.... Red Flag - No Practice; Yellow Flag - stay near by as weather could change anytime; No Flag - practice is still on
