Football
The GRAA runs a traveling Football program for residents in 3rd – 8th grades. Teams are split by grade (3rd-4th, 5th-6th, and 7th-8th). There are no try-outs or cuts. We participate in the Bergen County Junior Football League. In addition to varsity games, we play "JV" games at each level to ensure all participants receive significant playing time and skill development.
NEW FOR 2011: GRAA Football Clinic for 1st & 2nd Graders. Weekly on Tuesday nights from 6:30 to 7:45pm @ Hurrell Field starting on 9/13 for 6 consecutive weeks.
