About Lil Warriors

Lil Warriors is a youth flag football and cheer program for children in kindergarten through fourth grade. We have a deep respect for the fundamentals and sportsmanship of the game of football, and want to share its positive impact with everyone who joins us. 

As an organization led by dedicated volunteers, we’re grateful for the ongoing support of our communities. Our coaches and volunteers help us maintain high standards and uphold best practices for teaching the game in a way that is positive, safe, and developmentally appropriate.
