WHAT TO EXPECT FROM US
The High Ridge Chargers have been in Rogers Park since 1959 and have produced multiple national championship winning teams.
We aim to develop the discipline, hard work, and dedication within your child that can lead to that level of success. The skills that we develop within football will translate to future success on and off the field for your child.
what we need from you
In addition to turning in all your required documentation (birth certificate and report card), we need you as a parent to be committed to bringing your child to practices consistently so that we can develop their skills on and off the field while creating a strong team.
We need you to bring your child to the games on time and cheer on passionately as a fan, creating a positive game day environment.
If you are looking to get more involved as a parent, please see our coaching and volunteer pages!
