Introduction

Round Rock Bison

Round Rock Semi-Pro Football

The Round Rock Bison are a Texas based semi-pro football program located in Round Rock, TX that provides post high school athletes, former college players, and free agents a pathway to continue playing. Most football careers don’t end by choice they end because opportunities run out. We are the pathway between high school, college, and what comes next. If you’re not done competing, we’re not done building opportunities.

What is semi-pro football

Semi-pro football is American football played by athletes who are not full-time paid professionals. Players work full- or part-time jobs outside of football, and most leagues operate on a pay-to-play model where athletes pay team dues. Many continue playing for game film, repetitions, development, competition, camaraderie, love of the game, and advancement opportunities.

Currently, there are over 1,000 teams across more than 60 leagues that identify as adult amateur, semi-pro, or minor-league football. At this time, there is no single governing body, so rules, competitiveness, and organizational structure vary by league and team.

Run with the herd

Since 2014, our goal has been to provide a structured, professional environment where players, coaches, and staff can grow their skill sets and pursue opportunities for advancement while delivering family-friendly entertainment for the community.

We offer planned, structured, organized, and filmed practices, livestreamed games for exposure, and access to media and networking opportunities. Beyond players, we create pathways for coaches, officials, and other professionals to develop their skills, contribute their trades, and enrich the community through football.

Interested in playing for the Round Rock Bison?

Our roster is currently open, and we are actively seeking players who are interested in competing in a structured, disciplined, and competitive football environment. We do not hold traditional tryouts. Instead, prospective players are evaluated through recent film or a 4-week evaluation process, where our coaching staff assesses: Commitment, Consistency, Character, Coachability, and On-Field Skills.

Submitting interest does not guarantee a roster spot. All players are evaluated based on team needs and fit. Players interested in being evaluated by our coaching staff should submit their information and complete the evaluation fee.
