Our program goal is to develop character & confidence in children thru competition in youth football & cheerleading by fostering the life lessons inherent within the game, while stressing academics & community involvement.
The Weston Warriors Youth Tackle Football & Cheerleading Program was formed in 1995. As a pioneer member of the American Youth Football League (AYFL), after a 5 yr stint in Pop Warner beginning in 2017, the Warriors moved to South Florida NYFL in 2022, which is affiliated with the Orange Bowl Youth Football Alliance https://www.orangebowl.org/community/youthsports/obyfa/
The information below is typical & subject to change from time to time.
Divisions for Football range from 5 yrs old to 14 & Cheerleading from 4 yrs old to 16. Conditioning program is included and typically runs from May into June, 2 days per week, normally Mondays & Wednesdays for Football and Cheer. Regular season practices start in late June depending on registration #s. We also offer a Football Camp in Summer to compliment the Football Program (see Football Camp Tab). Other than 6U (2-3 days), Football teams practice 4 days per week during the regular season at Tequesta Trace Park. Cheer will typically practice Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays during the regular season.
Competitive Games normally begin the 3rd Saturday in August including sideline cheerleading & continue 8 consecutive weeks (to mid Oct). All age divisions typically play on Saturday, normally starting with the youngest division, immediately followed by the next age group until all games are complete. 14U Football may play mid day. Approximately half of the games are played at Home (Tequesta Trace Park) with the other half played Away at the various parks in Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Counties.
Qualifying Football Teams proceed in playoff competition until a League Super Bowl Champion is determined normally the last week of October. League Champions, or alternates, may continue to play in Regional Playoff Competition in November, with Regional Championships the week prior to Thanksgiving and could ultimately compete for a National Championship the 1st week in December.
There is a Local Cheer Competition for League participants typically the end of October and the Orange Bowl Cheer Competition afterwards https://www.orangebowl.org/community/youthsports/obyfa/cheerchampionships/ in mid November. Cheer teams may continue on to Regional (week before Thanksgiving) & National (1st week in December) Cheer Competitions.
We promote a family atmosphere and ask that you support all of our players and cheerleaders by volunteering & attending as many games as possible.
We look forward to having you as part of the Warriors Family!
Let's GO Warriors!
