2007 JFL MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL
Youth football, coming to a neighborhood near you.

STL TV, the City of St. Louis local government access channel, is excited about partnering with the St. Louis Junior Football League to produce and televise the 2007 “JFL Monday Night Games.” The games are shown on Charter Cable channels in the City of St. Louis and St. Louis County. The JFL organization picks the best rivalries within the league, which features teams of 7 to 14 year old players. STL TV provides network-quality broadcasts of these games, complete with two play-by-play announcers, instant replays and even the head shots that introduce the players.

The 2007 JFL season begins the second weekend of September and will run for 10 weeks. The JFL was founded in 1960 to give children between the ages of 7 and 14 the opportunity to play organized tackle football. Each year, the JFL organization teams up with youth sports organizations to provide good fundamental coaching for more than 3000 youths within the metro area. The St. Louis Junior Football League is a registered non-profit organization made up entirely of volunteers within the St. Louis Metropolitan area.

Our sponsors include Bommarito Automotive Group, Ranken Technical College, Carpenter's District Council of Greater St. Louis and Vicinity, American Family Insurance, St. Louis Job Corps, End Zone 4 Life and 590 KFNS The Fan.

Dean Hiller, Kirkwood Coach

"When I first saw myself on television, I was like wow-surprised! Really thinking 'is that Chantell making that beautiful catch, that beautiful dive, that beautiful tackle, is that really me?”
Chantell Stanciel, Herbert Hoover Football Player

"I feel like the coverage that STL TV provided for the Junior Football League was great. I think it gave our kids a sense of one day they can be on TV and possibly play in the NFL and be featured in that manner. It's a great opportunity."
Antonia Harrison, Parent

"The support here is phenomenal. We try to take advantage of it. We have a long partnership with JFL, as we did with the other leagues. It was our pleasure."
Michael Yarborough, St. Louis Rams, Community Outreach

"The Bommarito automotive group has always been a big sponsor of JFL football. In particular what it teaches the kids growing up - the skills, the loyalty, the love of the game. They really do teach a true football skill."
