Regions & Associations
Find your local Pop Warner association across Utah's six regions — football, cheer, and flag football for ages 4–15. We have no boundaries!
Division eligibility is determined by your athlete's age on July 14 of the current year. There are no exceptions to this date.
Whatever age your child is on July 14 is their official Pop Warner age for the entire fall season — regardless of when their birthday falls. Turns 10 on July 13? Plays as a 10-year-old. Turns 10 on July 15? Plays as a 9-year-old.
