Dragon Youth Football Night!

Friday, 9/13, is Dragon Youth Football Night at Dragon Stadium.  Please see below for more information.  We hope to see you there!

  • Friday, 9/13

  • Free DYF Tailgate in Dragon Alley @ 5 - 6:30PM (pizza, cookies, waters, activities, and more fun).

  • All players need a ticket - please print your player's ticket and give to your head coach for entrance into the game.

  • Tickets and parking passes must be purchased in advance - here is THE LINK TO TICKETS.

  • It is GREEN OUT so everyone in green.  DYF players, please wear your green jersey and shorts.

  • Teams meet at a predetermined location at the stadium and then converge before 6:20PM at the bottom of Dragon Alley (behind large scoreboard on west end of stadium).  Teams will then load into the varsity inflatable helmet, oldest to youngest, and get released at approximately 6:36PM.

  • The players run the length of the field and then return to the stands on the east end of the stadium (closest to Silicon Drive).

  • It is highly recommended to head into the stadium once you drop your player off with your coach or else you may miss the kids running onto the field.

Dragon Youth Football Player Development


Lady Dragon Football

Dragon Youth Football (DYF) is excited to introduce Lady Dragon Football.

This flag football program will have divisions from K/1 thru the 8th grade.  Our mission is to ensure all girls in Southlake & surrounding communities have an opportunity play the great game of football and have fun while learning the game of football in a positive, enthusiastic, encouraging environment. This program gives our daughters a platform to showcase their skills and compete with one another in a healthy environment. 

Lady Dragon Football will help build strong character, confidence and self esteem in our daughters.  We are confident that the lessons learned between the lines will help prepare them for their adventures ahead.  Teams will be grade based and formed through a draft.

3rd Grade Rookie Tackle

Dragon Youth Football (DYF) is excited to partner with USA Football and its adoption of the United States Olympic Committee's American Development Model (ADM).  

This program is designed to focus on the proper development of young players, increase enjoyment and ensure the sports long-term viability.  

For 3rd Grade Tackle Football we are excited about our Rookie Tackle Program.  Through close coordination with USA Football, we successfully implemented a modified approach to tackle football.  This program has been implemented across the Nation with amazing results.  It's a bridge between Flag Football and Full 11v11 Tackle Football.
