OUR MISSION STATEMENT

Our mission is to provide a program where youth (regardless of race, sex, creed, national origin, religion or disability) can practice the ideals of sportsmanship, scholarship and physical fitness to build and maintain healthy bodies and minds. Familiarizing all youth participants with the basic fundamental skills and proficiency in Football, Cheerleading and team related activities. Teaching the concepts of teamwork, loyalty, honesty, commitment and pride to stimulate the community’s interest in sports activities in a supervised, fun and safe environment.

We will continue to grow and serve youth football, cheerleading & dance with the  requirement that all participants maintain academic standards in order to participate. Richmond Eagle's commitment to academics is what separates our program from other youth sports in the area.

Proof of satisfactory progress in school is required. A 2.0/70% or the equivalent shall be the minimum grade point average acceptable to participate. In cases of doubt or conflict of opinion, a written statement by the school administration shall be deemed final. (NOTE):  No player may be eligible to participate in league games or championships if he/she has not met the nationally published scholastic requirements.

Our philosophy is that athletics and scholastics go hand in hand. At every level, we seek to develop well-rounded young men and women who learn not only the fundamentals of football, cheerleading, and dance but also the importance of education in an atmosphere conducive to developing sound character while having a good time.

We understand that not all student-athletes are able to meet our scholastic requirements.  If a child does not meet the requirements of scholastic fitness, he/she may fill out and submit a Scholastic Eligibility Form which is to be signed by a school administrator stating that the child will benefit from participating in the Pop Warner Program.  It is the discretion of the school administrator as to whether or not the student would benefit from participating in Pop Warner. This form allows us to monitor the progress of the child so that they maintain a minimum standard and understand the value of academics in conjunction with athletics.
