Age and Weight Limit

Pop Warner has changed the age limits for each division. All age changes are updated below

A player MUST meet the following age/weight requirements to be eligible for this league, NO EXCEPTIONS!

  • A players age on July 31, 2010 would be age for this season.
  • For example, if you turn 8 after 7/31/10 you are not eligible. If you turn 13 after 7/31/10 you are eligible.

Division Ages Min. Weight Max. Weight
Jr. Pee Wee 8-9-10-11 60 lbs. 105 lbs.
Pee Wee 9-10-11-12 75 lbs. 120 lbs.
Jr. Midget 10-11-12-13 85 lbs. 135 lbs.

The age/weight limits are absolute. The league will conduct a weigh-in when the player's equipment is distributed, typically during the first practice, and prior to each game. If a player is 10+ lbs. over or 3+ lbs. under limit at first practice he/she will not be eligible to participate. Failure to meet weight requirements prior to the start of a game will result in ineligibility for that game only. Starting with week 2 of regular season games the weight maximum for each division will increase by 1 lb. each week.

THE LEAGUE MONITORS WEIGHT VERY CLOSELY. DO NOT REGISTER IF YOU KNOW THAT YOUR CHILD'S WEIGHT WILL BE A PROBLEM. NO EXCEPTIONS CAN BE MADE. AGE AND WEIGHT REQUIREMENTS ARE SET BY POP WARNER AND ARE MANDATORY OF ALL ITS CHARTERED LEAGUES.

Because weight is a primary factor in determining in what division league your child will be placed in, please DO NOT guess the weight of your child when completing the registration.

Be honest and accurate.
