Youth Teams

overview

FHL offers youth opportunities for athletes in K - 5th grade (K - 6th grades in Cincinnati) in our Ohio-based cities.

Beginner Leagues and Travel Programs are outlined below.  All interested athletes should sign-up for the spring academy in their respective city.  Athletes will have 1-2 weekly practices, as well, as "game nights" throughout the spring season.

From the Youth Academies, we will also be selecting U-10 and U-12 travel teams to participate in 7v7 tournaments throughout the Midwest.  RSVPs will be sent out to families after registration closes.  These RSVPs do not guarantee selection, but they will help us better understand who is interested and available to be selected for a travel youth team.
