Inaugural CJFL Minor Football Week announced

The Canadian Junior Football League is proud to announce the inaugural “CJFL Minor Football Week.”

All 20 teams across the country will welcome minor football players of all ages to one of their home games between Saturday September 7 and Sunday September 15, 2013.

To celebrate CJFL Minor Football Week, minor football players wearing their jerseys will receive a complimentary “walk up” game ticket to the Saturday September 7th game against Hamilton. Plus one team of youngsters will get the opportunity to run onto the field with the starting line up and take part in the pregame coin flip.

“CJFL teams are an integral part of the communities that they represent,” said CJFL Commissioner Jim Pankovich. “Minor football, along with the Canadian Junior Football organizations, is important to the development of our next generation athletes and community leaders. The CJFL is pleased to showcase minor football in our communities during the CJFL Minor Football Week.”

Thousands of kids play minor football across the country each year and the CJFL would like to recognize them along with the countless volunteer hours from coaches, game staff and parents.

Many of the young athletes that are showcased during the CJFL Minor Football Week will ultimately play for a CJFL community based organization.

The Fratmen are pleased to invited minor football members of the WMFA, WEFL and the Essex Ravens.
