Description
Junior Bears is a tackle football activity offered throughout the city. In this instructional activity, athletes will participate in a variety of drills, learn offensive and defensive strategies, as well as proper conditioning techniques. Junior Bear Varsity teams are formed during the summer months and compete on Saturdays in the fall during a 7-week regular season, culminating in a playoff system that puts the top four teams in the annual Mum Bowl at Soldier Field.
Uniforms, transportation, and giveaways are provided to the participating parks. Kids in both divisions will participate in Opening ceremonies, clinics, league play, championship games, and closing ceremonies. This program is partially funded by a grant form the Chicago Bears.
