Sideline Warrior: Love everything about Blondes vs. Brunettes, and want to help us Tackle Alzheimer’s, but you can’t make all of the required practices due to extenuating circumstances; are you not sure playing football is something you are interested in; or has each team filled to their maximum capacity of players?

All sideline warriors are expected to raise $1,000 or more, no exceptions.
Attend as many practices as you would like, as they are a great work out and tons of fun.

After Team Blonde or Team Brunette fills individuals can sign-up to be a sideline warrior with a possibility of getting to join the team if a player decides to switch during the season. The swaps will be determined according to the time stamp of one’s registration, beginning with the first person being given the opportunity to become a player, if a player decides not to play. This process will be handled by the 2023 Co-Chairs and the Alzheimer’s Association representatives.

On game day, if fundraising minimum is met you will receive a jersey and after party tank, will participate in warm-up, photos ops, and cheer your team to VICTORY!
