The Severn Athletic Club (SAC) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to teaching the youth of our community. SAC teaches participants the fundamentals of football in a safe environment while striving to instill in them the values of education, sportsmanship, and physical fitness.
The Severn Athletic Club Youth Football Organization offers an instructional football program for youth 4-14. As a part of the SAC program, players develop fundamental skills, teamwork, leadership, and problem solving. These values and skills will guide them throughout their lives.
The coaches are dedicated to promoting the core values of the organization. Our coaches believe in developing life skills and individual character. Coaches are expected to lead by example in both words and actions on and off the football field.
“Coming together is the beginning. Staying together is progress. Working together is success”. -Unknown
Serving the Anne Arundel County for over 40 years, SAC offers flag and tackle football. We are proud members of the Anne Arundel Youth Football Association (AAYFA) winning multiple championships.

Teams Offered by Severn:
In-House - 5yr old: (6-year-old who are not quite ready for tackle will all be screened for this team)
Our in-house program this year will be a flag league designed as a developmental program geared towards introducing the players to the game of football in a not so competitive environment. The fields are reduced in size and parents are allowed to come on the field to provide a more intimate setting as they cheer on their teams.
Tackle (Travel Teams):
**Note: AAYFA has instituted a tackle-to-tackle rule that allows kids in weighted pounds to weigh up to ten pounds over their current weight. This means that an 80lb player (8yr old) that weighs in at 85lbs is allowed to play with his age group but can only play on the offensive or defensive line. They are not allowed to advance the ball.
**The 6-14 yr. old’s (14 if they are not in high school and do not turn 15 during the season) are traveling teams that play most of their 9-game season on within the county with a couple of exceptions (there are a couple of teams located in Upper Queens Anne and Chesapeake that are a part of our league).
**In an effort to provide a competitive environment, regardless your experience level. The league is separated into three divisions as follows:
1. American
2. National
3. Central
** Players will be evaluated and placed in the division that we feel gives them the highest rate of success. We do this because we want the player as well as the parents experience throughout the season to be an enjoyable one.
Note: Players are allowed to play up, but we normally don't like for them to play more than two ages up for safety reasons.
