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
- Picture Day
- Awards Night
- Fundraising coordination
…we’d love your support!
These small acts make a huge impact and help everything run smoothly.
💵 Support Through Fundraising or Sponsorship
We’re a not-for-profit program, and donations help us:
- Recondition helmets and equipment
- Purchase new uniforms
- Offset costs for families in need
- Enhance safety and facilities
Want to sponsor a team or support the program as a business?
Let’s talk — we’d be happy to feature your brand and share your support with our community.
