MARA Colts Tackle Football

The MARA Colts are part of the Pop Warner Football Organization.  Besides being around for almost 100 years and well respected in the community,  MARA and Pop Warner share a common philosophy regarding children and sports: fun, safety, learning, development, and a focus on scholastics.

MARA Colts Football plays under the local association of Pop Warner called the Pop Warner Little Panthers.  The league is made up of 16+ associations across the Charlotte Metro and surrounding counties.  It’s one of the largest and longest-standing leagues in the country.   We are part of the Mid-South Pop Warner Region.
