Cubs Program
The Cubs program is designed for our youngest players aged 3 to 6. In a fun, supportive environment, Cubs learn all the required skills and knowledge of the game at their own pace — while making new friends and having a great time every week.
Cubs play a modified format on a smaller field, giving every child plenty of ball time and the chance to build confidence and a genuine love of touch football from the very beginning.
What Cubs learn
- Basic touch and movement fundamentals
- How to pass, run and score in a game setting
- The rules of touch football in an age-appropriate way
- Teamwork, communication and sportsmanship
- Confidence on the field and a love of the game
- How to have fun with friends every week
