  • Are curious about football
  • Want to develop basic skills
  • Simply enjoy being active and outdoors

📌 Focus Areas:

  • Catching & throwing
  • Movement & teamwork
  • No tackling involved

With over 75 years in the community and a brand new turf field, the Mustangs are committed to inclusive, positive sport experiences for youth.
