U16 Contact: 2026 Fixtures
U16 Contact Fixtures
We’re excited to announce our U16 Contact fixtures for 2026!
We play a 5-a-side version of American Football and at each tournament we play 2 games against different opponents.
Our season starts with Tournament 1 hosted by the Lancashire Buccaneers on 25 April with games against the Buccaneers and the Yorkshire Academy Assassins. On 9 May we travel to Chester to face the Romans and Darlington Steam and on 4 July we’re in Yorkshire to play Chester Romans and the North East Academy. The regular season concludes with Tournament 6 at home in Manchester on 25 July where we’ll go up against the Sheffield Giants and Lancashire Buccaneers.
We’d love to see you at one of our games this year. Your support means the world to us, and entry is free!
It’s also not too late to join the team. If you are 14 or 15 years old, or you turned 16 after 31 August 2025, you are eligible to play for our U16s Contact team. We are a mixed team so girls and boys are both welcome. We will teach you everything you need to know!
