Registration for the 2023 Fall Season Now Closed

The Junior Wildcats registration for the 2023 Fall Season has now closed.

Look for 2024 Fall Registration to open in Spring of 2023.  As a reminder, if you’re a rising 6th, 7th or 8th grader and live in the Dunwoody HS district, you’re eligible to play for one of the 3 grade based teams.

Practices take place on the field at Dunwoody HS on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday from 6 - 8pm, subject to change.  The Junior Wildcats play 8 regular season games on Saturdays with home games played at Dunwoody HS, which was newly turfed for the 2021 season!  We play in the GMSAA, the largest middle school feeder program in the country.

The registration fee is $275* and includes two jerseys per player, a helmet and shoulder pads.

Offseason Conditioning This Summer

For Junior Wildcats that would like to get in shape over the summer for the upcoming season, varsity HC Mike Nash has an open invite for Junior Wildcats to condition with the high school players. Conditioning begins June 5 at Dunwoody HS and goes  from 9am-12pm on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. This is a great opportunity for our Junior players to get to know Coach Nash, his coaches and the high school players, but is not mandatory. You can email Coach Nash at dunwoodyfootball15@gmail.com for more information as June approaches. We suggest that your son drink half his body weight in fluid ounces of water everyday during the summer and bring his own water to conditioning.

7th Grade Dunwoody Junior Wildcats make it to back to back championship games!!!

The 7th grade team defeated a physical River Ridge team 8 - 6 this past weekend (11/6/21) on the road to make it to this group of players 2nd consecutive championship game. They will face Centennial at Wheeler HS at 3pm this Saturday (11/13/21). If successful, it will be the 2nd championship for the 4 year old Junior Wildcat feeder program, which consists mostly of Peachtree Middle School students plus others who reside within the Dunwoody High School district.

A shout out to the 8th grade team who lost in the semi finals to a very tough Hiram team. It was the 8th grades second year in a row making it to the semi final game. Unfortunately, one of their best players was not available due to injury from the prior weekend. They finished a great season with an 8 - 2 record, which is the best record for that grade in the 4 seasons for the young program.

Go Junior Wildcats!!!
