The asterisked (*) provisions in each division allow the "older but lighter" player to qualify. *A child's age on July 31 is their age for the season (Aug. 1 to approx. Nov. 30). A player may gain 1 pound per week after the second game, up to a maximum of 9 pounds. Beginning in the second week of the regular season (mid-Sept.), the maximum weights in each division will increase by one pound per week.

Cheer follows ages only – no weight limit.

The age of the spirit participant may match the age of the football players in that same division. (i.e., if the league permits a football player to be a 13 year old, older-lighter junior midget, then the spirit squad may also sign-up a 13 year old participant on the corresponding cheer/dance squad.) The spirit participant is matched in age only, weights do not apply.
