As excerpted from the "Official Pop Warner Rulebook"
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
or cheerleading, but also the importance of education, in an atmosphere
conducive 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 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. Coaches must constantly keep in mind the ages of the
participants. The program stresses learning lessons of value far
beyond the playing or cheering days of the boys and girls involved,
such as: self-discipline, teamwork, concentration, friendship, leadership
and good sportsmanship.
With such goals in mind, and by providing an opportunity to participate
in an organized, supervised environment with emphasis on maximum
safety and participation, Pop Warner Football offers young men and
women a unique experience.
