What is a Jamboree?

A Jamboree is an exciting preseason event where multiple teams come together for a series of short, scrimmage-style games to prepare for the upcoming season. It provides players, coaches, and families with an opportunity to experience real-game scenarios, fine-tune skills, and build team chemistry before official games begin. Unlike regular-season matchups, jamborees are designed to be fast-paced, instructional, and fun, giving athletes a chance to get comfortable on the field in a low-pressure environment.

Why Host a Jamboree?

A jamboree benefits the football program, players, and community in several ways:

• Game Readiness – Helps players adjust to game speed, practice plays, and improve teamwork before the season starts.

• Coach & Referee Preparation – Gives coaches an opportunity to evaluate team performance and make adjustments while allowing referees to sharpen their skills.

• Community & Team Bonding – Brings families, players, and teams together, creating a stronger sense of camaraderie and support.

• Excitement & Energy for the Season – Builds enthusiasm and momentum heading into the first official games.
