Volunteers Needed! Call for Coaches and Buddies.

What does a Buddy do?
Similar to Special Olympics, a buddy is someone that assists (shadows) a child in playing the sport of football. A buddy is what helps a child enjoy this sport regardless of their disability. A buddy helps put the smile on their faces that says to all, “I DID IT!”

What does a Coach do?
Organize the team in play according to the rules of Challenger Program.


If you would like to help and put a smile on a child’s face, let us know.  Contact Jay Bogart at president@berwickyouthfootballleague.com.
