The highly anticipated “Bear Round Up” event recently ignited the spirit of the upcoming football, flag football, and cheerleading seasons for Riverside Poly High School. This annual gathering served as the official kickoff for the 2025 season, bringing together athletes, coaches, and families in a vibrant celebration of community and sport.

The Bear Round Up signified the beginning of a new season for all programs, including tackle football, the increasingly popular flag football leagues, Marching Band, and the dedicated cheerleading squads. Participants had the opportunity to connect with teammates, meet coaches, and learn more about the exciting season ahead.

The event, historically supported by local businesses and community organizations, embodied the camaraderie and excitement regarding Riverside Poly Athletics. The Bear Round Up not only signified the start of competition but also fostered a sense of belonging and teamwork among participants.

Adding to the festive atmosphere, the Marching Band was also present, entertaining the crowd and enhancing the celebratory mood of the kickoff event. The presence of the band underscored the community-wide support for these vital youth programs and created a lively environment for everyone in attendance.

As the football and flag football seasons are set to begin in the fall, and cheerleading/band programs gear up for performances and competitions, the Bear Round Up serves as an essential stepping stone, uniting the local sports community and generating enthusiasm for the upcoming year of athleticism and team spirit.

The success of these programs is made possible not only by the dedication of coaches and volunteers but also by the invaluable support of our local businesses. The league extends its sincere gratitude to all the community partners and sponsors who contribute to the football and cheer programs. Your generosity helps to provide essential resources, cover operational costs, and keep participation fees accessible for all youth in our community, ensuring that these vital programs can continue to thrive. Your commitment is deeply appreciated and plays a significant role in fostering youth development through sports.
