About Calumet City Chargers Youth Football and Cheer
Our Mission
The Calumet City Chargers Youth Football & Cheer Program is the largest and most accomplished program under Tomorrows Youth Foundation, Inc..
Our mission is to develop well-rounded young men and women who master the fundamentals of football and cheer while understanding the importance of education. We foster an environment that nurtures strong minds, healthy bodies, and positive character—all while ensuring participants enjoy the journey. Our program emphasizes sportsmanship, academic achievement, physical fitness, self-discipline, teamwork, focus, friendship, leadership, and respect for the game. We are committed to helping every student-athlete reach their full potential, always prioritizing the success of the team over individual recognition.
The Calumet City Chargers is a founding member of the Chicago Unlimited Youth Football League and a developmental partner of USA Football. We proudly serve as a community partner of the Israel Idonije Foundation and Keith Rucker's Reach 4 The Sky Foundation, and we are also members of the US All Star Federation.
Our History
Founded in 2008, the Calumet City Chargers Youth Football and Cheer program is dedicated to mentoring student-athletes throughout Calumet City and the Northwest Indiana area. We provide a structured environment that promotes discipline, teamwork, and personal growth. Our organization delivers high-quality football and cheer training, supported by top-tier team sports equipment in the Southland.
Our Program
We believe every child deserves the opportunity to participate, grow, and succeed—no player is ever turned away. We are committed to being more than just a sports program; we are a pillar in the community. Through volunteer service, outreach initiatives, and active community involvement, we teach our student-athletes the value of giving back, leadership, and serving others both on and off the field
