Rochester Football
The Tradition Continues, Since 1985!
Our Mission
The Rochester Football and Cheer are tasked with teaching the fundamentals of football, and life lessons to prepare our young men for any adversity they may face later in life. Our emphasis is on developing proper and safe techniques, sportsmanship, teamwork, character and leadership in a safe environment. The Rochester Football and Cheer have a long history full of traditions, and we are dedicated to winning the right way. Our experienced coaching staff strive to provide the best instruction which allows players who come through our organization the best opportunity to succeed; whether in high school football, other sports or at life in general.
Regardless of years in the program, playing time or what path a player may take after their time with the Rochester Football and Cheer has come to an end, we pride ourselves on our oldest traditions.
What to Expect
Attendance Policy
Being a teammate on a Rochester Football and Cheer squad requires a commitment. Every athlete is expected to attend every practice. If any athlete incurs three (3) unexcused absences during the year, they are subject to dismissal from the team. Any athlete who misses two practices during the week will not participate in that week’s game.
Field Etiquette
Please remain in the stands during all games. Parents, family and friends are not allowed on the field unless they are issued a field pass to perform a volunteer activity such as chain gang.
Lifetime Achievement Awards
Earned by each football player and cheerleader who has given 6 consecutive years of commitment, hard work and dedication (their full extent of eligibility during Jr Freshman, Freshman, Jr. Varsity, and Varsity years) to the Rochester Football and Cheer organization
Rochester Football and Cheer Time
One of the commitments we make is to be ready on time. We demonstrate this by operating on “Raider Time” which means we are ready to go 15 minutes before the required start time.
Volunteer Obligations
This is a volunteer organization. Just as your athlete has to commit to being at practices and games, parents must commit to perform a specified number of volunteer activities. We cannot operate without everyone doing their part.
