Warrior First Aid Requirements
The Warrior Organization requires that a certified First Aid person be assigned, and present, at each home game. The Warrior Complex is equipped with two Automatic Electronic Defibrillators (AED) located at the snack stand and Tower 1. 

Warrior Severe Weather Policy
Coaches are absolutely forbidden from holding practices during severe weather, particularly "lightning."

When lightning is spotted, Coaches are instructed to remove their children immediately from the playing field and seek the nearest available shelter (lockers or Snack Stand, NOT under the trees).

It should be noted that practices may be held during rain and snow conditions, as these can be considered "Game type" conditions. Practices during rain and snow is left to the discretion of the Coaches with the permission of the Executive Board, unless prohibited by Warrington Township.

Coaching Requirements 
All coaches and assistants must go through USA Football coaching certification yearly.  The Warrior Coaches are educated each  year on core principals of being a coach and teaching safe fundamentals governed by the standard set by USA Football.

Equipment - Helmet Re-certification
Although we are only required to re-certify helmets every other year, Warriors Football policy is to conduct such re-certification each and every year.

This typically costs the Organization approximately $35 per helmet, but safety is well worth the cost!

Football Equipment - Pads & Uniforms
The Warriors Football Organization attempts to replace worn out equipment each and every year. In addition, the Organization supplies each player with a Game Jersey, game pants, a re-certified helmet and shoulder pads.

Participating members will need to supply Practice jersey &  Integrated padded practice pants, properly fitting girdle, chin strap, athletic supporter  and mouthpiece.

The expense of providing quality equipment and facilities for the enjoyment and safety of our participants is substantial. Registration fees provide only a part of the funding necessary to cover our day to day operating expenses. We have attempted to maintain our fees at a constant rate from year to year. As a result we depend heavily on funds obtained from other sources such as local Business & Corporate sponsorships, as well as conducting fund raising activities during the year.
