Weigh-In Info
Weigh-in Process for 4th -8th Grade Tackle Players
All players are required to obtain an official weigh-in for inclusion on the team roster. Players who do not receive an official weigh-in will be designated as a Black Striper for the entire season. No exceptions will be made.
Players should make every effort to attend the official weigh-in hosted by their home association.
The weight recorded at the weigh-in will be considered the player's official season weight. Players must wear, at minimum, shorts during the weigh-in.
If a player is unable to attend MGYFA's scheduled weigh-in, they may attend another association's official weigh-in. Alternative weigh-in dates, times, and locations are listed on the right side of this page.
Please note: If you choose to attend another association's weigh-in, it is your responsibility to verify that the date, time, and location have not changed from what is posted on the LMAA or MGYFA websites.
