The fall season has been a strong one for the Wayland-Weston Youth Football and Cheer program, with standout performances across all three divisions: tackle football, flag football and cheer.
Led by coordinator David Bressler, the tackle football program featuring teams in grades 4–7 is enjoying a remarkable season. With two weeks remaining in the regular season, every team has already clinched a playoff berth, a testament to their dedication, coaching, and on-field execution. Bressler credits the success to the athletes’ commitment and the strength of the community behind the program.
“These kids have shown tremendous growth week after week,” he said. “We’re proud of how they’ve competed and represented Wayland-Weston.”
On the cheer side, the spirit and precision were on full display at the annual Power in Pink competition. The 10U cheer team delivered a flawless performance, finishing with zero errors — an impressive accomplishment in a highly competitive field. The team’s strong showing reflects months of hard work, discipline, and enthusiasm from both the athletes and their coaches.
Meanwhile, the youngest athletes in the K-3 flag football division have been putting in the effort and building strong fundamentals. With multiple jamborees on the horizon, the flag teams are poised for a solid finish to the season. Coaches are excited about the progress these young players are making and the future of the program.
