Go to INFC website and look up their director contact info. He should help you out. I have several coaches contact me every year for this reason.

Simply put there are individuals in high places who cant stand the thought of their kids losing a football game. If it was up to these individuals Stillwater would always be like the rest of the teams in the west and have 1 stacked team and another team not scoring a td all year. No excuses this year, after last years 5th grade blue team got completely dismantled by BA Black in the 1st round they took all of their kids, had kids repeat a year, and poached a couple from Gold to combine with the athletes from this grades stillwater team that have given so many teams headaches in the past to compete in an inferior league. SYFA has done all they can to ensure that when there is a split, INFC rules are being enforced. Unfortunately that upsets parents and trophy chasers. The good news is that despite all of this numbers are strong and now the rocking chair coaches have finally gotten what they felt they were entitled to all along.

Im not sure what you are trying to say but I just wanted to exchange film.. Are you implying we are a stacked team ? I have the same kids I had last year where we went 5-4... there is a second team in Edmond this year with a bunch of kids I would live to have.. I can assure you we are not trophy hunting !!

No sir Stillwater does not have the same coach as last year.. I was the coach if Stillwater 4th grade last year and am now coaching a little tournament team full of 6th graders and a few 5th graders.. This has nothing to do with the comment above and only to do with the whole covid-19 thing and at the time we decided to do this it was our only guarantee we would get to play some kind of football. The coach this year is tucker and a friend of mine. If you are looking for film from this year i don't have any but would love to help you if you want any from last year.. I also can speak with tucker and get you some from this year if you would like.  He is a great guy and is all about helping kids get better no matter where they are from so if you would like give me a call or text some time. 405 385 4902.

Also anyone else who wants to know why some of us didn't play in the INFC this year is more than welcome to call and talk with me and it would be appreciated instead of unnecessary and completely false comments like the above being made.     

I also need to stick up for the Enid and say they are not "inferior" to anyone else in the state. They have some legit football players over there and has honestly surprised us a few games. Most any Stillwater team that plays over there is usually because the parents want to keep Saturdays free for O state games and has nothing to do with "trophy  chasing", Enid games are on Thursdays nights. BTW most our high school players right now played in Enid as kids and i think they speak for their selves when it comes to playing in a " inferior league" as kids.. :) only losing to one of the best high school programs in the nation in 3 years says a lot if you ask me.

Hopefully all this crazy covid crap is over and we are back playing infc ball next year.. I miss it and it is where my home is when it comes to coaching youth football.

Good luck, everyone! looking forward to seeing everyone again.

I'm one of the coaches for stillwater and I second what coach Jojo stated.  I'm not sure who or what sleeplessinstillwater is talking about.  Good luck today.
