After further review of field availability and Covid protocols regarding contact sports, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the season for all Portsmouth Youth Football teams, including SKILLS and DRILLS.   Unfortunately, the City of Portsmouth has not made a final decision on whether outside towns will be able to play on city fields and NEJHFL (the league we play under) needed to finalize the schedule. Although this is not the direction we had intended for the season, we have considered all other alternatives in an effort to construct an option that would get our players on the field and we were not able to find a solution that will work logistically and minimize the risks for our players. For those that have paid for the season, we will reach out individually to process a refund.  We will continue to meet with league officials throughout the year to see if there is an option to pursue football in the spring, but at this point there are no plans for that.
