Junior Knight Football 2026 (for 7th–8th grade boys)

Re

The Junior Knight Football Program has been building tough, confident football players since 2001 - and chances are, the Luther High varsity players you see under the Friday Night Lights started right here!

​

If you are entering 7th or 8th grade in the 2026-27 school year, this is your chance to step into real tackle football.  You'll learn the game from coaches who love football and want to help you get stronger, faster, and smarter on the field - whether you've never played before or you've been throwing spirals since first grade.

​

You'll practice and play on the actual Luther High School Fields, learn the skills and terminology used at the high school level, and compete in weekly games - just like real varsity players.

​

What to expect?

• 2 practices per week  (starting the week of Aug 24)

• 1 game per week   (September through October 13)

• Home games on the Luther High School game field

• All players are provided a mouthguard.

• Program cost will be $175.00 and includes rental of the following equipment:  helmet, shoulder pads, pants, game and practice jersey, and knee pads.  Participants are required to purchase a football "girdle". Cost for this is approximately $40.   All players should have football cleats

Some info from Billie:  "Billie's kitchen is a home-based business located on our farm near Nodine, MN. Each bag is hand decorated by our 16 year-old special needs/medically fragile son, Blake, and his PCA's. Our 2 daughters, Shelby, a freshman at Luther High School and Riley, a 5th grader at St. John's Nodine, help at markets. $2 of each bag will be donated to the Jr. Luther Knights Program. You can visit www.billies-kitchen.com to view all of my products and please follow me on Facebook billies-kitchen1 to see where I will be next!"
