Philosophy of the National Pop
Warner Program
Pop Warner Football is an international program
operated for the benefit of its youthful participants. Since 1929, the
program's philosophy has been: Academics and Athletics go hand-in-hand.
At every level, Pop Warner Football seeks 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 conductive to developing sound mind, body and character - and
having a good time along the way!
The general objectives of Pop Warner Football are to
inspire youth, regardless of race, creed, religion or national origin,
to practice the ideals of sportsmanship, scholarship, and physical
fitness, as reflected in the life of the late Glenn Scobie "Pop" Warner.
Pop Warner strives to make the game 'fun' for all
boys and girls. The program stresses learning lessons of value far
beyond the playing or spirit days of the boys and girls involved, such
as: self-discipline, teamwork, concentration, friendship, leadership,
and good sportsmanship. |
