Snowbelt League
The Twin State Valley Snowbelt League is a competitive youth football league uniting towns across Vermont and New Hampshire in a shared commitment to sportsmanship, player development, and community pride. Serving as a foundational experience for young athletes, the Snowbelt League provides structured, age-appropriate tackle football in a safe and supportive environment.
Member communities field teams that compete in a full season of both home and away games, culminating in a end of season 10 Yard Scrum that highlights the growth, effort, and teamwork demonstrated throughout the fall. The league emphasizes the importance of fundamentals, discipline, and respect—on and off the field.
Through participation in the Snowbelt League, players gain valuable game experience, strengthen their athletic abilities, and form lasting friendships while representing their hometowns with pride.
