Rochelle Jr Tackle has been offering tackle football to the Rochelle area for over 50 years now!
Tackle football is available to both boys and girls from 5th through 8th grade. We do not have tryouts, all players that register for the season are on the team. RJT provides the players with the required equipment to play, all you need are cleats and to show up to practice with an open mind and a willingness to learn and work hard.
We have a great coaching staff that dedicate themselves not only to the sport of football but to the RJT program itself, putting in countless hours of preparing, taking safety courses, attending coaching clinics, attending meetings and doing anything else they think will help make them a better coach to these young athletes.
RJT Provides each player with all the equipment necessary to play tackle football. The only thing players need to provide on their own are cleats. If you wish to use a different mouthguard other than the one we provide, you are welcome to get your own.
