Playoff Football Games

Coaches and Athletic Directors,

Congratulations to all of our member schools who have qualified for the TAPPS Football Playoffs. As you make your plans, please keep the following in mind:

In Football, for both 6 Man and 11 Man, the higher seed will be the home team in the Area round only. After that, games shall be played at a neutral site, as determined by mutual agreement or a coin toss. If a District Champion gets a bye in the first round, they shall NOT be the home team in the second round. The game must be held at a neutral site as determined by mutual agreement or a coin toss.

Please DO NOT create a playoff game in TMS.

As your district is certified, TMS will automatically place your team in the appropriate bracket and will create that game for you on your school’s game schedule. You may then go in and edit the game details (date, time, location, etc.)

As a reminder to all 6-man football coaches whose team qualifies for the TAPPS State Semifinals you must play that game no later than Friday, November 29. The 6-Man State Championships are scheduled for Thursday, December 5. Since TAPPS rules require at least five days between football playing dates, a game played on Saturday, November 30 will only allow four days between contests.

If questions arise, please contact the TAPPS office at 254-947-9268 or by email at [email protected].

Thank You and Good Luck in the playoffs!
