Welcome to the Lenape Valley Patriots home on the web!

2009 Midget & Pee Wees Football/Cheerleading Teams

Welcome to
The Lenape Valley Patriots
Midget Football and Cheerleading Program.
PO Box 162
Stanhope, NJ 07874 

We are the largest youth feeder program to the Lenape Valley Regional High School. The program is made up of children, parents and coaches from Netcong, Stanhope and Byram, which follows the high school sending district. Our board consists of 8 positions that are open to any parent with a child in the program plus voting privileges are granted to all members in good standing with the organization. Our meetings are held in the CO Johnson Field House on the third Thursday of every month at 8pm. All parents and coaches are encouraged to attend.

 
The program participates in the North Jersey Youth Football League which is made up of many former SCIL rivals of LVRHS. These include Sparta, Vernon, Newton, Wallkill Valley, Kittatinny and High Point. West Milford is also a member of our league. The league consists of 5 levels and each level has the ability to field multiple teams. This ensures more playing time for the athlete and also avoids the "stigma" of fielding "B" teams. All levels that are split must conform to league parity rules. The lower levels all play on a 40yd x 80yd field. The 7th and 8th grade level can chose to play on the 40 yd x 80 yd or the traditional 53 1/3yd x 100yd field. 
 
Our Flag level is a registered NFL Flag participant, and has experience explosive growth over the last three years. Last year over 140 children participated in this program alone. Children in grades K-2 (ages 5-7 yrs old) are given an opportunity to play in a 5 on 5 , all skill position format, that helps them develop a love for the game. Playing time is at a maximum because all of our games are internal and typically there are only 8 players on a team. Having fun is the first priority of our flag program. Also, every game is played at home, which is a plus for parents of younger children. No travel to deal with during the school week. All of the players receive their own reversible NFL replica jersey to keep.
 
Our field and competition cheerleading programs have also grown over the last few years. Our competition squad has experience much success in competitions from Sussex and Morris counties here in New Jersey to Philadelphia and Maryland.  This is due to the quality instruction they have been given by our outstanding coaching staff.
 
On the padded level... This year we have purchased all NEW high quality "tackle twill" jerseys. These are the type the pros wear, with our nickname and numbers all embroidered. No more pealing!! Please take great care in washing and drying these jerseys. Hand wash if you can and air dry. Please avoid putting these new jerseys in the dryer. We supply all the uniform and equipment your child needs with the exception of cleats and girdles. Parents may purchase a LVP practice jersey by contacting Kathy Ruggieri before the season starts.
