Congratulations to our Falcons Scholar-Athletes!


Pop Warner’s All-American Scholar Weekend is in Disney World May 25-26.  The event is a celebration of Pop Warner’s top student-athletes from across the country! 

About 400,000 players and cheerleaders participate on teams and squads annually; the Top 2% are recognized as All American Scholars.  These players and cheerleaders achieved at least a 96% average for the school year plus participated in non-sports activities and/or volunteered in their communities while maintaining an "A" avergage!

Some of our very own Falcons have been recognized locally (and now have been invited to attend the national event) for their outstanding efforts on the field and IN THE CLASSROOM!

The Falcons Family is very proud of our Falcons' achievements.

FYI:  All American Scholars Process, from Pop Warner website:

  • A final score is calculated for each student that consists of up to 100 points (85%) for the student's grades for the prior school year, along with up to 18 points (15%) awarded for the attached Addendum sheet of activities and achievements.
  • Once the scores have been calculated, First Team All-Americans are selected. The top 35 football players and 25 cheerleaders per grade (plus ties) are selected as National First Team All-Americans.
  • Second Team All-Americans are then determined by Pop Warner based upon the number of applications that were submitted for that year. Last year's total was approximately 3,800 Second Team All-Americans

In 2013, the event will be in Boston and for 2014 back in Orlando.
