Helmet Home

Welcome to the home of the East Lansing Junior Trojans. We are proud to be the feeder program for the Trojans of East Lansing High School and members of the Tri County Football League.

On this site you will find all of the information you need to know regarding the Junior Trojan Football program including key dates, forms, league and team rules, vital links and tips from our coaches.

We are a student/athlete-centered and volunteer run organization committed to giving our 4th-8th grade football players the best amateur football learning experience possible.

TROJAN TRADITION TURF DRIVE

As many of you know our football field is in need of a major overhaul. Tom (Crawford) and Art Brandstatter are co chairing an effort to have Field Turf installed. If you did not receive a brochure in the mail please click on this link TROJAN TRADTION TURF DRIVE to access the brochure and forms for contributing. Any and all donations are greatly appreciated in achieving this goal and providing our players a safe playing surface to compete on.

Herb Haygood Camp a great option for your ELJT gridder!
Quick recommendation of an excellent football camp this summer for East Lansing Junior Trojans in preparation for the August 10th opening day of practice for ELJT: it is the Herb Haygood Off Season Skills Camp that is being held at Eastern High School. The Youth Skills Camp (4th - 8th grades) is June 29th & 30th. ELJT Coach John Wagner will be serving as one of the positon coaches at the camp. For more information, go to www.herbhaygoodfootballcamps.com.

Positive experience is the objective
We strive to have the East Lansing Junior Trojan program continue to prosper, grow and be a positive experience for our young men (future East Lansing High School football players) from the East Lansing community who participate.
For anyone wanting to provide any input on the program or for those interested in volunteering, please email Tina Crawford (crawdad@acd.net) or Tom Crawford (tcrawford@pmai.org).
