The Oriole Park Falcons are a proud member of Chicagoland Pop Warner, and 2024 marks our 33rd year of outstanding youth football. We are highly recommended by all of the local high schools, including Taft, Notre Dame, St. Pat's, DePaul College Prep and Loyola. If you take a look at the top football players at these schools, you will find an abundance of athletes that got their start as an Oriole Park Falcon! We have the experience and knowledge that no other program can offer!
We will introduce your young athlete to the game, teach them the basic fundamentals and get them ready for high school football and beyond. As always, there are no tryouts or cuts. Everyone makes the team and everyone plays!
We have a proven safety record and all of our coaches are U.S.A. Football certified. Using the latest "Heads Up Football" approved techniques, we have and will continue to be at the forefront in helping young athletes reach their full potential.

"Switching to Falcons was the best decision we made for our kids. It truly is like a big family. Most importantly, the kids love it here. They know that all of their coaches genuinely care about them, not only in football and cheer, but for other sports, school work, and everything else going on in their lives. You won't find a better football/cheer program. - Leah Ridge, mom of three, joined OPF in 2022
