The 495 Regional Team (for players, or coaches bring a full team!):
The 495 Regional Teams are developmental teams to prepare players from 7 to 14 years old for the Elite National teams and to get them ready to play at their highest potential in High School and College. The schedule of events for the 495 Regional Teams varies from year-to-year depending on a number of considerations.
There is a separate registration fee that includes your uniform and player package, all practices, and all events. Registration fees are separate from any tryout fee you may have paid.
Every year Long Island Elite Football accommodates dozens of less fortunate children in the community through it’s need-based scholarship program allowing them to participate in a first-class program that produces the best high school and college players. No child in the history of the program has ever been turned away for financial reasons..
We offer several need-based scholarships every year through our hardship application. In 15 years we have never turned a player away for financial reasons.
COACHING AND TEAM MANAGER APPLICATIONS ARE ACCEPTED YEAR-ROUND FOR ALL TEAMS. OUR TEAM MANAGERS FULFILL AN IMPORTANT ROLE AND DUTIES FOR THE TEAM, THEY ARE NOT JUST HANDING OUT CUPCAKES AND ORANGE SLICES. TEAM MANAGERS ARE INCLUDED IN COACHING MEETINGS.
