Playing time
The DJBD Board of Directors has voted to expand our program from four to eight teams, two teams per level. This new approach will reduce roster size and will provide much more game-time playing opportunities for our kids!

2010 Registration fees

Practice begins with the High School Football Camp on July 27th, 28th, and 29th at the Davis High School football field from 9:00 am – 11:00 am each day (check in on the first day at 8:30). The cost of the camp is $30, however, all kids that are registered to play football with the Davis Junior Blue Devils can attend the camp for free. Please note that due to construction, players will need to enter the field from behind the visitors bleachers.

Practices start on August 2, 2010 with practices held Monday – Friday from 6-8 p.m. at Emerson Jr. High School in West Davis. Please note that all teams practice at Emerson with the exception of the Midget teams. The Midgets will practice at Davis Senior High School. Practice days are reduced to three days a week (Tuesday – Thursday) after the Jamboree (August 28th and 29th). The season runs August – October with possible playoff games extending into early November. Practice times are adjust starting in September due to earlier sunset times. These time adjustments will be announced ASAP.
