2026 Derby Pop Warner Football

Welcome to the Derby Pop Warner Pop Warner Football and Cheerleading Program. This program has been structured to teach our children the fundamentals of football and cheerleading.

Our program’s goal is to help your children learn the sports of football & cheerleading, promote scholastics, develop friendships, and establish discipline and most of all, have fun! 

Team assignments are based on age. Your team will automatically assign you by age via sports connect. This may change depending on team availability. A coach will reach out with your final team assignment prior to July 15th.. 

Please read below for a quick overview of some of our expectations for this season.

Derby Pop Warner Football's regular season starts July 15th and ends October 25th. If teams make playoffs, the season may extend into November. We expect all players to attend and be on time to practices, games, and required functions. Practices can be scheduled Monday – Friday, 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. Practices are 4 days a week during the month of August and then go to 3 days a week after Labor Day. All teams will participate in a Jamboree the last weekend in August. Games are scheduled on Saturdays or Sundays beginning Labor Day weekend. The game schedule is released the week prior and can be mid-week as needed for make-up games or playoffs. Practice and games do take place in the rain and snow. They are only cancelled or postponed due to severe weather.

Once registered, additional information will be sent to you via email with our code of conduct that must be signed by a parent/guardian and the athlete to participate. We look forward to having you as a part of the Derby Pop Warner Family!
