Eastside Dolphins - 

2025 Tackle Football (8U, 10U & 12U) registration opens Tuesday, 4/29/2025.

Football

Participants will be placed in a division based on their age on August 31, 2025 (no exceptions). The Football Fee includes registration, game uniform (jersey and helmet decal) and practice jersey with the player's jersey number and name across the back.

Individuals are responsible for providing a white helmet, mouth guard, shoulder pads, game day pants, cleats and practice pants. In general, equipment is a safety investment and will be used for several seasons. We highly recommend purchasing equipment early to avoid the last minute rush when stock is limited. You can check second hand equipment via Facebook Marketplace or Play it Again Sports. We will also aim to hold an equipment swap & sell, but supplies are very limited. 

Every year an updated physical form is required for each player - 2025 Physical Form

Greenville County Rec issues a 2025 Youth Football Ops Manual that may be helpful to read prior to purchasing equipment (and definitely before start of the season). This manual also includes rules and regulations including weigh-in protocol, playing rules, and operational policies. 

Cheerleading

Registration for the 2025 season opening in May. For further information email edyafootball@gmail.com.

Coaching

If you are interested in coaching, please sign up through the registration form and EDYA will contact you directly if selected. All coaches must submit and pass a background check (https://bib.com/secure-volunteer/Greenville-County-Parks-Recreation-and-Tourism/home) in order to coach. All coaches must also have a current USA Football Youth Certification for Non-Contact & Contact Coaches (https://footballdevelopment.com/youth-certifications/). Please reach out to Britney Sillman for a pre-paid code before completing certification. There are also a few easy forms to complete as well, which can be completed closer to the beginning of the season. 

General

Tackle football conditioning will begin in July. Mandatory weigh-ins will be scheduled. Game schedule will be posted by Greenville County Rec. We will post more details on the timeline / schedule once Greenville County Rec provides additional guidance. Please see our "About" page for typical timeframes.
