🏈Wheeler football is moving forward with skills, drills, and fundamentals. Thank you to every family who completed the Wheeler Sports football interest survey. After reviewing the results, we determined that we do not have enough players to safely form tackle teams for travel and competition in the 100th Meridian League this season. Players who still want to play tackle football should contact: S***t Kirkland-moon in Shamrock. Please contact S***t directly for information about team availability, eligibility, fees, and registration.
🏈Wheeler Sports is still moving forward with a local football opportunity. Registration will open for a Skills & Drills Program for all Wheeler County Youth entering grades 1st through 6th. Program groups: Grades 1 and 2; Grades 3 through 6
The program will teach football fundamentals, proper techniques, teamwork, discipline, safety, respect, and integrity. This will be a rebuilding year focused on helping our youth learn the game, build strong habits, and have fun. We hope to have enough participation to offer flag football. We are also looking into whether nearby communities have flag football teams that could play games without requiring extensive travel outside Wheeler County. Those details are still being developed, and games are not guaranteed.
