Iowa 7 on 7 Football

Mission: Cultivate a 7 on 7 ecosystem for Iowa youth by providing inclusive and affordable events, rules governance, and grassroots support for clubs to get started. History In 2018, supported by three local high school teams— the Iowa City West Trojans, Clear Creek Amana Clippers, and Thomas Jefferson J-Hawks— we launched our very first event: the inaugural Annual Playmaker Iowa Elite Tournament. This event marked a significant milestone as the first independent 7v7 tournament organized by Iowa 7v7 founders Trevor and Jennifer Bollers. With backing from team coaches and the local community, we took our first steps on this exciting journey. Fast forward to 2019, and Iowa 7v7 Football Inc. was officially established as a non-profit organization. Fueled by the enthusiasm of players and supporters, we expanded our network and forged lasting connections. Meanwhile, other pioneers like Team Iowa and Level Up formed high school travel teams, showcasing Iowa talent nationwide. At the grassroots level, the Fire Dragons, Akhievers, and Savages laid the foundation for youth club teams, fostering a love for the game from a young age. Our Playmaker tournament series grew from strength to strength, blossoming from a single event into four vibrant gatherings throughout the spring and summer. With over 200 kids of all abilities taking to the field, our tournaments became a celebration of athleticism, camaraderie, and sheer joy. Whether they were throwing, catching, running, or defending, every participant found their place in the excitement of 7v7 football.

Iowa 7on7 Football is a youth sports organization that hosts 7v7 events in the Midwest. We have created a standard set of rules, procedures, and processes to run events efficiently while also providing those standards to other organizations to duplicate. We typically have 15-20 events that are guided by us, where we physically host/plan 4-6 per year. Our most notable events are at the UNI Dome in Cedar Falls Iowa, where we have hosted 40 teams in the past and are looking to expand to 60.
