The Belleville Bobcats Football and Wildcats Gridiron Club have agreed to consolidate youth football in Belleville into one organization, the Belleville Youth Football Program, beginning in 2018.  This decision comes after numerous discussions on the advantages of consolidating programs and to provide one voice for youth football in the Belleville Community. 

The consolidation has resulted in the establishment of the following Board of Directors for the new organization, which is now tasked with merging all administrative functions of the two stand-alone groups.

President: Otis Woods; Vice President: Jim Olson; Treasurer: James Nolden; Secretary: Patrick McKinley; Member-At-Large: Zach Arndt; Member-At-Large: Randy Raven; Member-At-Large: Todd Saeger; Bobcat Director: Steve Meier; Flag Football Director: Tim Edge; Safety Coordinator: Bart Morrick; Webmaster: Eric Jerome.

Both Bobcat Football and Wildcats Gridiron Club Flag football are currently planning the new season.  Any Belleville youth interested in participate can contact Steve Meier at (608) 424-3589 or meier_ythfootball@yahoo.com or flag football at bellevilleflagfootball@gmail.com.

A special recognition and tremendous thanks goes to Steve Meier, who formed the Bobcat Football program in 1993 and has been instrumental in insuring that kids attending Belleville Intermediate School and Middle School have an opportunity to play and enjoy tackle football.  Together with his Board of Directors, Steve has served the Belleville Community with honor and respect, especially having grown up and playing football for Belleville High School in the late 1970s.
