6 A Side Tackle

The basics of 6 A Side Football are the same as traditional 12 player football, aside from a few basic rule modifications. For an introduction to the rules and field requirements, visit the Football Canada web site.

6 A Side Football is growing in Alberta with the following teams competing in a Central Alberta 6 Man High School League: Buck Mountain Mustangs, Breton Cougars, Caroline Cougars, Frank Maddox Warriors, Millwoods Christian School, Ponoka Broncos and the Rimbey Spartans.

Football Alberta has the following free resources to support the development of 6 A Side Tackle Football:

• 6 A side Youth Tackle Playbooks
