The Bernies run on community.
As a privately funded, volunteer-driven program, we rely on the energy, time, and passion of our families and neighbors to help us deliver a great experience for every child — both on and off the field.
There are many ways to make a difference — whether you’re a parent, alumni, local business, or simply someone who loves giving back to youth sports.
???????? Volunteer Coaching
We’re always looking for positive role models to coach in our flag football, tackle football, and cheer programs. No prior coaching experience is required — just a commitment to showing up, setting the tone, and supporting our athletes.
We provide:
- Guidance and mentorship for new coaches
- Training and safety resources (Heads Up Football®, etc.)
- A team-based coaching model for support
All coaches must complete a background check.
????♀️ Team Parents & Game Day Helpers
If you can help with:
- Bernie Bowl

These small acts make a huge impact and help everything run smoothly.
???? Support Through Fundraising or Sponsorship
