The Bradenton Gladiators identified a need in the community to develop a program that teaches important life lessons and fosters strong character development through sports. We created a system that focuses on teaching proper fundamentals and techniques, encourages players to develop new skills, self-confidence, coordination, and game play; introduces the concept of sportsmanship, and the importance of education and fitness. As each player progresses in this program, they will have the ability to apply what they learned both on and off the field.
The Bradenton Gladiators Youth Football and Cheerleading program the "Junior Gladiators" serves participants aged 5-14. The various levels are Flag (6U), Tiny Mite (8U), Mighty Mite (10U), Junior Varsity (12U) and Varsity (14U) Divisions.
The Junior Gladiators Football program will play their games at Lincoln Park (Palmetto, FL), and surrounding counties (Manatee, Sarasota, Pinellas, Hillsborough).
