Wildwoods, NJ – June 13, 2025 – The Beach Football League (BFL) is set to make waves this summer with the Wildwood Classic Open Tryouts, scheduled for August 8-10, 2025, on Saturday at 9:00 a.m. at the Schellenger Avenue beach in Wildwood.
This event is part of the Beach Football League’s Summer Tour, offering athletes from all backgrounds – whether former college players, retired NFL professionals, or passionate amateurs – the chance to showcase their talent on the sand. Tryouts are open to individuals who graduated high school in 2024 or earlier, are 18 years old or older, not under contract with any other professional football league, and not current members of collegiate football teams for the 2024 season.
Individuals will compete for a chance to be selected by the Beach Football League’s NFL players panel to participate in a 2025 Beach Football League exhibition game held at the end of the day. This NFL all-star game features Philadelphia Eagles legend Desean Jackson versus Broncos/Redskins legend Clinton Portis acting as Team Captains and selecting their own star-studded teams that will compete for Wildwood glory on the beach!
The Wildwood Classic promises not just competitive play, but also a vibrant community atmosphere, set against the scenic backdrop of Wildwood’s expansive beaches. Whether aiming to reignite a football career or simply enjoy the camaraderie of the sport, this event is a must-attend, free to spectate. There will be other surprise celebrity guests and meet and greet opportunities with all NFL legends on location.
In addition to open tryouts, the Beach Football League is hosting a youth camp for ages 8-17 called the Kids Zone and a youth tournament for high school-aged players. This camp offers young athletes the chance to learn from former and current NFL players and coaches. Whether just starting out or looking to improve their skills, this camp is the perfect opportunity for children to train with the best.
Registration for the Kids Zone camp includes a 4-Day Amusement Park Pass and 2-Day Water Park Pass with full access to all Morey’s Amusement Piers.
