For a team experience that lasts a lifetime, get your family involved in Optimist Football
Teams are formed right in your neighborhood, and led by well-trained, caring coaches.
For decades, teams and families fill the Optimist fields on Saturdays in the fall. Camaraderie and game-day excitement fuel the atmosphere. The games and team practices build athletic skills—and also provide life lessons, friendships, and lasting memories.
Today’s norms and guidelines are followed for safe, age-appropriate play.
• Your child joins a team that is set up according to neighborhood. Everyone participates – no tryouts. Age and weight also determine team placement.
• Your child is on a 4 year path, where the team stays, develops, and grow together, with a well-trained coach who is also committed to a 4 year run.
• This approach creates continuity in development, maximizes relationship building with team mates and coaches – along with the life lessons and lasting memories.
