The Tri County Panthers Youth Association is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization established by parents in the local community to provide the children in the Triangle area with safe, fun and positive outlets through sports.
While teaching children the skills needed to be successful on the field, we also teach them skills that will make them successful in life.
Along with sportsmanship, the children are taught the principles of leadership, teamwork, respect and responsibility.
One of our goals is to channel the energy of these young people into positive, constructive activities. We believe that planting these positive seeds in the youth of today will produce successful, happy adults tomorrow.
Our organization is a full member of Pop Warner Little Scholars Inc. which is a national youth football and cheerleading program with over 70 years of service to kids throughout the United States. Pop Warner has affiliations with the NFL, Walt Disney World, Fox, NBC and ABC/ESPN.
It should be noted that Pop Warner is the only national youth sports organization that emphasizes academic excellence. Athletes must demonstrate satisfactory classroom progress each year before they are allowed to compete.
Youth ages 5 - 15 can participate in one of six divisions. The official league age for a player is the age as of July 31st of the current year. This age/weight chart shows the official minimum and maximum age and weights restrictions for each division as mandated by Pop Warner National Headquarters.
