Ages & Weights

Starting in the 2023 season, Pop Warner now offers two options for competition for tackle football. A child's age on July 31 is his/her age for the season.

The Age/Weight options are shown below. Competition for the Jr Pee Wee level and up are available for Division 1 and Division 2.
