The East Bay Panthers Youth Football & Cheer is a nonprofit organization whose objective is to build Oakland (and its surrounding communities) youth by supplying an alternative to the streets. This is fostered through instructing and developing all interested boys and girls ages 5 to 14, in the areas of character building, safety, discipline, sportsmanship, teamwork and the overall fundamentals of football and cheerleading. We acknowledge and support academic achievement and encourage community awareness and participation.
