Nighthawk Elite Youth Tackle Football is entering it’s third season after a successful second season! The Nighthawk 12U team was the Pop Warner State Champs and CFL Gold Division Runners-Up, the 10U team was the Silver Division State Champions, and the 11U and 13U teams were Silver Division Runners-up!
This year, we hope to continue to include 10U through 13U, but would be open to 9U as well. The DOB cutoff is 7/15 (so you are eligible to play whatever age group you are on that date, no exceptions). Previous tackle experience is not required. Nighthawk Elite competes in the Rocky Mountain Pop Warner Division within the CFL (Colorado Football League which includes NoCo Division and Pike’s Peak Division teams). The goal of the Nighthawk Elite program is to prepare athletes for high school competition. Practices will be held twice a week in July, and three days a week when the season begins in August. The season continues through the end of October. All Nighthawk Elite coaches are volunteers and trained in concussion awareness, CPR and First Aid.
Nighthawk Elite is not directly related to AAS, but we are again helping acquire information from parents and coaches to continue momentum for this season (fall ’26). Please register here so we can communicate with the appropriate people until we begin the official registration process later this spring. Go Nighthawks!
