Our Mission
Welcome to the Central Virginia Jags.
We are a competitive youth football program offering an alternative to recreation based football in the area. We strive to attract and encourage student-athletes who would like to face greater challenges on and off the field. Our program will be structured very similar to a HS program and require a greater commitment in all facets of being a student-athlete.
We do not aim to "takeover" or "replace" existing programs in any neighboring counties. We aim to offer an alternative.
