  • How do I sign my child up for RBPW?
    See Registration Page for specific dates, times, locations, and forms required for registration.
  • What is the Registration Fee refund policy?
    Please refer to our Registration Refund Policy here.
  • Can my child cheer on a team with their friends?
    Teams are formed with safety being the top priority of every player’s placement. Players are assigned to teams based on their eligible age range, total amount of registered participants, and total number of coaching volunteers. We are not able to place players on teams, just because their friends are on a specific team. RBPW reserves the right to deny any related request.
  • Who are the coaches?
    All coaches, team managers/team parents, and student demonstrators are 100% volunteer based that consist of parents, family members, community members, and high school students. All rostered staff are required to pass a National-level extensive background check, fingerprinting, including YACADA certifications (A National Pop Warner requirement).
  • How many games are in the season?
    There are generally 10 games in a season, + possibility of playoffs/championship games.
  • When and where are cheer competitions?
    Please see the Competition Acknowledge page for most current information.
  • What are the requirements for parents?
    We ask that all parents volunteer at least 4 hours during the season, such as working at the snack bar, spirit wear table or additional Game Day needs as they come up. **All working Snack Bar hours will simultaneously earn player and team fundraising funds. The more hours volunteered, the more funds your player earns!
  • How can I volunteer?
    Please check out our Parent/Family Involvement section for full details!
  • How can I stay informed about the DRPW program?
    DRPW communicates with parents and players through our website, email, texts, and social media channels. We encourage all families to sign up for our email list, subscribe to text alerts, and follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay informed about the latest RBPW news and updates. All football games will be scheduled and updated in Zorts Sports app. We strongly encourage all cheer families to download and monitor this app once official 2024 games are scheduled. Additionally, we will establish a league wide sport communication channel through TeamSnap to support our commitment of keeping team families informed on the most current updates, scheduling, and events.
  • Who do I contact if I have questions, comments, or concerns?
    Any question, comments, suggestions, or concern, please contact the following: Cheer Coordinator, Ashlee Jasmund, cheer@rbpopwarner.org
  • What are the boundaries of Del Rancho Pop Warner?
    All residents in the 92128 zip code EXCEPT for south of Poway Road. All residents in the 92127 zip code EXCEPT for South of San Dieguito Rd. to Carmel Valley Road to include Willow Grove. WCC sets the boundaries for Pop Warner programs and we are surrounded by other programs. Escondido Pop Warner (Escondido School District) is to the north of us, Poway Pop Warner is east and south of us since they merged with Rancho Penasquitos Pop Warner in 2019, and Del Mar Coastal Bears is to the West of us serving some of Del Sur, Rancho Santa Fe, and Torrey Pines (San Dieguito school district).
  • Why doesn’t Del Norte create their own Pop Warner program?
    Del Norte has tried, but the WCC denied their request since they exist in Rancho Bernardo Pop Warner’s Zip Code. The reality is that there aren’t enough athletes to maintain two Pop Warner programs in this area.
  • What is the board hoping to get out of this?
    We are growing and we are limited by field space, both for practice and game days. We need support from the other facilities in our area like Maranatha, Del Norte, and 4S Sports Park - in addition to the support we have received from Rancho Bernardo High School and Rancho Bernardo Community Park.
  • 50 years is a long time and Rancho Bernardo Pop Warner is thriving - why would you throw that away?
    We do not believe that we are throwing anything away - we think of this as an evolution. The program isn’t going away, it will continue to exist and serve our community - we intend to make it more inclusive of the surrounding areas. Also, we aren’t thriving - we struggle every year with getting enough funding to operate. We are a non-profit that operates exclusively with volunteers and prices are increasing dramatically for everything.
  • But we have always been the Broncos - this is a legacy.
    Actually we haven't always been the Broncos. RB Pop Warner has existed for 50 years. We have been a bunch of different names in the past - the raptors and renegades to name a few. The change to the Broncos was a few years after the High School opened in 1991.
  • This sounds familiar?
    Rancho Bernardo Girls Softball and 4S Girls Softball merged to form The Ranch Girls Softball League recently and utilize RB Community Park, 4S Sports Park, and Kaeser Fields. They did this to grow the league and level up. They realized that having two leagues that close together wasn’t sustainable and merged.
  • Don’t other Pop Warner programs share the same branding as the area high school?
    Some programs share branding (La Costa Canyon Mavericks, Oceanside Pirates, Carlsbad Lancers, and Scripps Ranch Falcons) - but many do not (Poway Raiders, Escondido Wolf Pups, Rancho Hills Titans, El Cajon Falcons, Del Mar Coastal Bears).
