East Kilbride Pirates - Hamilton Buccaneers Youth American Football

 

Hamilton Buccaneers

Youth American Football team

The Hamilton Buccaneers Youth team were formed in 2012 and welcome boys and girls aged 14 - 16. We play a five man contact version of the sport and compete in the Scottish Youth Conference of the British American Football Association's National Leagues against Aberdeen Roughnecks, Edinburgh Wolves, East Kilbride Pirates and the Highland Wildcats.

Costs and equipment

We supply all necessary playing equipment and team uniform - all you need is suitable practice clothing and footwear and a gumshield. At the moment there is a charge of £10 a month. This covers expenses for training, tournaments, equipment and other running costs. In addition, parents or guardians will be required to register their youth player with the league each year for competition and insurance purposes. This currently costs £17.50.

Training is on Sundays on the grass rugby pitch at Hamilton Palace Sports Ground from 4.00pm-6.00pm. Please email buccaneers@piratesfootball.co.uk for more information and to register interest in joining.
