PSO approved uniforms and flags must be worn during ALL games. A $25 administration fee will be charged for refunds, and no refunds will be given once practices start. Some age groups may be combined if there is not a sufficient number of teams to create the age group.

Uniform Process

PSO will not be ordering flag football uniforms for teams this fall.  Coaches will be responsible for making sure their team has approved PSO uniforms for the Fall 2025 season.  PSO will provide uniform vendors for coaches to order uniforms for the fall season.  Uniform vendor information will be available on the website by Friday, July 11th. Check back then for uniform cost and ordering details.

PSO exists to share the life-changing message of the gospel of Jesus Christ through the vehicle of youth football. We require our coaches to lead their team spiritually by praying with their team and leading them in weekly devotionals. Our desire is that youth football players from across the Metroplex would have an opportunity to know Christ personally, learn to play football the right way, and learn valuable life lessons that can be taught through youth sports. PSO leagues strive to make every child a champion. Therefore, PSO coaches are led to encourage, motivate, and build each child’s self-esteem as well as his or her athletic ability.

Mandatory Coach/Volunteer Screening Process

All Fall 2025 PSO Football Head Coaches, Assistant Coaches, Chaplains, and Team Managers are required to register per the instructions below. After you have registered in Touchpoint, you will receive email instructions for submitting an online volunteer background check application and to complete Ministry Safe training. We make every effort to protect our children, so we appreciate the time it takes for you to complete the requirements.

As part of our ongoing commitment to teaching positive life values to the children in our sports leagues, each team will have a designated Team Chaplain responsible for leading the weekly value lesson and pre-game prayer. This role can be filled by the head coach, an assistant coach, or a trusted parent who shares our values and is comfortable guiding these moments for your team.

Game Locations

All games will be played at Prestonwood Baptist Church Champions Field (Turf Surface), Lions Stadium (Turf Surface), or PSO Grass Football Fields (Grass Surface). Grass practice field can be utilized for games as well.

Team Formation

Teams are formed based on age and zip code. PSO accepts full or partial teams. Players will be placed on teams after the final registration deadline. A player CANNOT be assigned to a team unless the online registration is complete, and payment has been received. There are two player placement possibilities:

1. Player Pool (New Players) – Players entering PSO who are not on an established team will be placed on teams as close as possible to their zip code and/or school.
2. Team Pool — Coaches of returning teams must invite all their players to play again. Past players will be placed on the same team as last season by PSO staff unless they request to be in the player pool. Players who played with PSO last season may request to be placed in the player pool if they do not wish to return to the same team.

Uniforms/Equipment

Game flags are included with fully completed & paid player registration. Players are required to purchase their own football cleats, mouthguard & Football. PSO will not be ordering flag football uniforms for teams this fall. Coaches will be responsible for making sure their team has approved PSO uniforms for the Fall 2025 season.  PSO will provide uniform vendors for coaches to order uniforms for the fall season. Uniform vendor information will be available on the website by Friday, July 11th. Check back then for uniform cost and ordering details.

Standards of Play

Our league is grade level-based and not based on player birthdate.  A player is only eligible to participate in his/her grade level and/or higher.  There are NO exceptions considered for any player to participate in a lower grade level.  Any violation will result in the suspension of both player and coach, along with the disqualification of the team from postseason participation.

Participants will play in their corresponding age division following the school-age group chart below. UIL/TAPPS rules state that you are not eligible to play high school sports if you turn 19 on or before Sept. 1 of your senior year.  This chart helps parents stay in line with that criteria as you move through youth sports.  Whatever your child's age is on July 31st, is what the chart recommends for age division in PSO. PSO feels it's important for your child to be able to play with their school friends. You can play up with director approval. If you have any questions, please email [email protected].

Prohibited

No jewelry (necklaces, rings, bracelets, earrings) will be allowed at games for the safety of all players. Using tape or band aids to cover jewelry will not be allowed. Jewelry must be removed. No pets are allowed on the sports fields, with the exception of marked service animals.

Spiritual Development

In keeping with our mission, PSO Football is committed to introducing Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord to our players and mentoring them in the Christian life by the example set by our coaches and league officials. To that end, coaches will be supplied with value lessons through the FCA coach's app that will be shared weekly with their players before each practice. Additionally, prayer will be common at practices and games.

The Gospel will be presented to all players 3rd grade and older during one of their games, giving them the opportunity to respond to Christ's call on their lives.
