Welcome to Airlanes Jr. Football & Cheerleading

We look forward to working with all of our football players and cheerleaders in 2008, a year in which will be celebrating the Fortieth Anniversary of Airlanes Football!

Airlanes Jr. Football is a Not for Profit Organization that was established in 1968. Airlanes teaches over 500 boys and girls from the area each year, the fundamentals of football, cheerleading, and sportsmanship. Airlanes has received the Cheektowaga Service to Youth Award as an organization, and also has individuals that have received this award for their committment to youth.

Airlanes Football is proud to have dedicated individuals that have contributed to our continuing success. Airlanes accomplishments are not seen in trophies and awards, but are seen in the character of those individuals who go on to serve the community with leadership, dedication, and knowledge, from the fundamentals they learned through football and cheerleading.

Please check out Football or Cheerleading for additional news and information specific to those programs.

Airlanes is run completely by volunteers. We are always in need of volunteers to help with committees, or to help coach. If you are willing to volunteer some of your time to help keep this organization running strong, please contact Mr. Frank Szefler at 725-3133.

Board Meetings are held on the 3rd Wednesday of every month, at the Losson Park recreational building, at 7 pm during the off-season. Meetings are open to everyone.

Parents, you should now have all details finalized for the Festival Weekend of December 6th and 7th. If you still have questions or problems, PLEASE contact your respective Cheer managers as soon as possible to iron out any details. Thank You.
