Cowlitz Pop Warner uses football and cheerleading and a respect for education to develop strong, smart, responsible, healthy young men and women. We give them experiences that build their appreciation for and understanding of leadership, teamwork, and discipline.

• Teams are organized by age-weight classifications (ages 5-14) to make sure kids of similar size and experience are competing.
  
• School oriented teams (Castle Rock, Kalama, Longview, Kelso, etc.) so the kids play with their classmates
  
• Post season play-offs up through national level
  
• Well-defined rules to ensure playing time for every kid in every game
  
• Scholastic requirements to play
  
• Scholarship programs
  
• No special rules or restrictions. All play is according to high school rules football (Jr. Pee Wee and up) with 10 minute quarters.
• Games use the same football officials that referee high school games
