Thank you for visiting our site. We are excited about being able to serve our community. The Junior Thunderbirds is organized as an amateur youth sports program exclusively for charitable and educational purposes and to foster national amateur athletic competition within the meaning of § 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended).

The primary objective of the Junior Thunderbirds is to inspire youth with our core values, regardless of race, color or creed; which are:

• Build healthy minds and bodies;
• Develop skill and proficiency in sports and related activities;
• Teach the concepts of teamwork, sportsmanship (in victory and defeat), loyalty, honesty and pride;
• Stimulate community interest in sports;
• Teach discipline,
• Teach self-control
• Teach respect to oneself as well as teammates, coaches, family and community.

What sets the Thunderbirds Apart from the other area youth teams?

Our football program is in its second year, all of our age divisions made it to the TYFA playoff circuit with all but our flag division advancing to the second round in 2007. While our Cheer team took 1st place at the 2007 TYFA Cheer Competition.

We provide our athletes with sports specific training help prevent injuries and develop proper muscle growth. Our program has a working relationship with Catz Sports, a premier training program for football, basketball and track athletes. More information about them can be found on this page Catz Sports.

Additionally, our cheer program has discounted rates and a good relationship with River City Gymnastics located 2831 NE LOOP 410 every Thursday evening from 6:30PM until 8PM,to specifically train our athletes in tumbling.
