Halifax Argos Football Club

The Halifax Argos are a non-profit youth tackle football association, who strive to make team sports, phyisical literacy, and hard work accessible to anyone interested in the sport of tackle football. We turn no one away for financial reasons, and we do community outreach to find people who may need something like football in their lives.

In 2024 - Practices will be Monday, Wednesday and Friday from August 2nd until playoffs end in the second or 3rd week of November. Mites may only practice 2x per week. 

The registration cost (for us) is 300 for Bantam, Peewee, and Atom, and 200 for Mites. There is also an 80$ fee from Football Nova Scotia and Football Canada which covers membership to them, and their insurance. There is also a small transaction fee for online payments. We accept cash, cheque, or credit card payments through Teamlinkt. KidSport JumpStart, and North End Opportunities Fund, are 3 funding programs you can use to pay for your registration fee. If you're going to use one of them, please let us know. If you need a different funding option, please tell us. We always want to support people to play regardless of financial barriers.

The location for all practices will be either on the Halifax Peninsula (e.g. South Commons, Merv Sullivant aka THE PIT, or Fort Needham), or at Mainland Common Turf in Clayton Park.

We provide the gear (helmet, shoulder pads, jerseys, pants, leg padding, mouthguard) except for cleats and gloves. Cleats are required but gloves are not (but players like them).

Any questions, please reach out to halifaxgridironfootball@gmail.com or find us on Instagram. "Halifax Argos Minor Football" is us, but "Halifax Argos Football" is no longer managed.
