Football

The NYFL supplies helmets, chin straps, mouth guards, shoulder pads, game and practice shirts, game and practice pants, and a belt.  Beginning in 2010, the league will use pants that have all of the pads sewn into the pants so there will be no need for separate girdles and pads.

Items that your son will need include molded, rubber cleats, a jock, and socks.  Some players purchase other equipment such as gloves, a special mouth guard, their own shoulder pads, chin straps, fore arm pads, etc.  These items are not necessary and are personal preference. 
 

Cheerleading

The league provides the “Shell” meaning the Sweater/Vest, Skirt and Pom Poms.

Anything that is in direct contact with the girl’s skin becomes the cheerleader’s responsibility. This includes Bodysuit, Bloomers, Socks and Sneakers. Sneakers all need to be the same. Your coach will let you know what brand and where to purchase your sneakers prior to the start of the season. Warm up jackets and pants are strongly encouraged and can be purchased separately. All the information regarding where to purchase all items not included in the league registration fee will be distributed via email or at the parent/team meeting prior to the start of the season.
