PRIDE. COURAGE. INTENSITY.

Learn More About Our Organization

The motto of the Calgary Wildcats Football Club is “Pride, Courage and Intensity”. We have focused on building discipline and leadership skills to provide our athletes with a foundation to build on as they move through their formative years. We believe that successes in the form of winning championships are empty without the development of good life skills. No doubt some of our players will go on to play football at a very high level, but those who don’t will also be members of teams at school, in the workplace and elsewhere where these skills will be equally important. We are an active and proud member of our community.

We require commitment and respect from our players and in return we will ensure the players have an enjoyable and competitive experience. At present we operate five individual football teams within the organization. We have two Atom teams (8-10 yrs old), one Pee Wee team (11-12 yrs old), one Bantam team (13-15 yrs old), Spring League team (Grades 9-11) and U19 Female (12-18 yrs. old).

So All Kids Can Play

The Wildcats Football Association of Calgary is a non-profit organization that was established in 1964. It is composed of approximately 200 players between the ages of 8 and 17 that reside in Southwest Calgary and communities west of the city. We have teams participating in the Atom, Peewee, Bantam, and Spring Leagues.

The Wildcats are very proud that we have never, in the history of our Club, turned away a player due to a lack of financial resources. Over the past year, 13% of our players required financial assistance, and we expect this proportion to remain the same or increase over the coming year. Providing this support does impact the Club’s finances, and therefore we need to offset some of these costs. The “So All Kids Can Play” program was established for this very reason, and provides donors with the opportunity to support youth in developing skills both on and off the field, such as leadership, teamwork, and perseverance. We are very thankful to the generous donors that have helped us in the past, and invite you to become part of the “So All Kids Can Play” program.

Donors are welcome to sponsor a player or contribute any amount to the program. If you are interested in sponsoring a specific player, please contact Liza directly. It costs approximately $500 to sponsor a player, and this process will remain anonymous unless otherwise specified. If you prefer to make a general contribution, any amount is appreciated. Please check the amount below you would like to donate. Donations can be made by Cash, Cheque or Credit Card. We greatly appreciate your generosity.

Spring Flowers

Casino

Stay tuned for our next Casino date - TBD

Casino’s bring in approximately $60 000 to the Wildcats Football Association every 18 months.

This amount makes up approximately 50% of our Fundraising Revenue on an annual basis and about 25% of our total revenues in any given year. Casino revenue allows us to keep registration costs significantly lower than other youth sports and gives us the opportunity to purchase the most advanced and safe equipment available on the market. We are also proud to say that our fundraising efforts have ensured that we have never turned a child away for financial reasons since our inception in 1964.

With all of this said we turn to our Wildcat Family to help us with volunteer needs for the Casino. If you work a shift for the Casino, all of your fundraising volunteer points will be met.
