FOOTBALL & CHEER
In 2011, the Watts Rams started with one team in the LA County Pop Warner Southern Region. Due to the efforts of the coaches and the success of the program, we are proud to say that to this date, we have grown to five total tackle teams, one flag team and a new exciting cheer program. Each team consists of 25-30 student athletes with coaches made up of community volunteers and LAPD Police Officers. The divisions offered through our program are as follows:
Flag: 8 - 11
9u: 9 & under
10u: 10 & under
11u: 11 & under
13u: 13 & under
14u: 14 & under
Cheer: 8 - 14
The Watts Rams youth football program focuses on strong moral character, positive values, personal responsibility and a commitment to academics as their principles. The program inspires student-athletes to strive to become positive leaders not only in football in Watts, but in life more broadly, wherever it takes them.
