Welcome to Pleasanton Junior Football League
Building Champions On and Off the Field Since 1969
Celebrating 56 Years of Flag Football, Community, and Character Development
Founded in 1969, the Pleasanton Junior Football League (PJFL) has proudly served the Pleasanton and Tri-Valley area for over five decades. We’re a co-ed, non-profit youth sports organization dedicated to teaching young athletes the fundamentals of football and cheer while promoting sportsmanship, teamwork, leadership, and respect for others.
Whether you’re brand new to the sport or looking to build on years of experience, PJFL offers a supportive, safe, and inclusive environment where kids can grow on and off the field.
Open to boys and girls in grades 2–8, our 7v7 division helps players stay active in the off-season while building football IQ, teamwork, and confidence.
Bring the spirit! PJFL Cheerleading is open to participants ages 7–14 and practices start July 14. Teams are formed based on birthdate, weight, and experience—not grade or buddy requests. Join the squad that brings the energy to every Hawks game day!
Want to make a difference on and off the field? PJFL is looking for enthusiastic Head and Assistant Coaches for all six tackle divisions in the 2025 season. No experience needed—just a positive attitude and a willingness to learn! PJFL provides free USA Football Youth Coach Certification, CPR/First Aid training, and background checks.
