Welcome to the 2010 Saddleback Valley's Pop Warner season!
Home of the Bears, Chargers and Wolverines
Saddleback Valley is one of the largest, successful, and well-respected Pop Warner associations in the country. We'd like to extend a warm welcome to all players and cheerleaders who are new to our organization and a special thank you to our returners.
Please read through this carefully before you click the link at the bottom of the page to forward to our online registration system.
Saddleback Valley Pop Warner is open to kids living within our association boundaries. Our association serves the following cities: Lake Forest, Mission Viejo, Portola Hills, Foothill Ranch, Laguna Hills, Laguna Niguel, and Aliso Viejo. We are proud to have partnered with several local High Schools to provide our teams with the opportunity to play in their stadiums on state-of-the-art turf fields and in some instances, under the lights! If you live outside our boundaries you will need to obtain a geographic waiver from your home association. Waiver forms can be found in our RULES & FORMS section. Let us know if we can help by contacting us.

Notes:
- For cheerleading, only age guidelines apply.
- When you sign up for tackle football, please put your child in the lowest possible playing level based on age/weight. If you feel your son/daughter is able to lose weight to get to a lower level, you will need to input the maximum weight for that level of play during the registration process.
- Registration is based on first come, first served and teams fill quickly! Register early to ensure a spot on a team.
- CHALLENGER registrants please contact the league directly
You must read the General Information and FAQ sections of the website. These can be found under the FOOTBALL and CHEER sections..
After signing up you will need to plan on attending one of our in-person sessions (check the league calendar for dates). During this process we will validate football player weights, collect birth certificates, photos, and
have players/parents complete and sign the OEC contract/code of conduct
as well as order your Spirit Wear and answer any questions that you may have.
Cheerleaders also need to come to the in-person registration to drop off birth certificates and photos and to sign the OEC contract/code of conduct. If our in person registration dates have passed, simply follow the directions provided in the online tool for mailing your information to our league.
Players and cheerleaders are not considered officially ‘registered’ until full payment is received. Final team and division placement will be made by the Athletic Director and the Board. Our teams will be formed in late April and you will hear from your coach most likely in early May. Equipment handouts will be shortly thereafter. Check the league website calendar for specific dates.
