We talk about Calgary Bantam Football, and touch on other levels of football too. It's tackle football, north American style. The players are youths, 13 - 15 years old.
This week James covers the action at Shouldice Park while Cole traveled to Airdrie to cover the Homecoming games.
The Wildcats remain perfect through 7 weeks, and the Cowboys remain a game behind. Stampeders, Lions, and Raiders are competing for 2 Division 1 playoff positions. Between the Bulldogs, Colts, and Chiefs only one will secure a Division 2 playoff spot. The others will play for the chance to travel north for Provincials.
It's a busy weekend coming up in week 8. First, it's the final day for the Pink Sock Initiative, which raised $6600 for the Canadian Cancer Society this year!. Second, it's Gordie's 8th Annual Food Fight: the team that brings in the most donations wins a pizza party!. Finally, it's the Wall of Fame game: just prior to the final game at Hellard Field there will be a wall-of-fame presentation.

S6 E07 - Week 6 - 2026
Cole and James review the games from week 6, including the Lions narrow victory over the Raiders.
In the other games the Wildcats remain perfect, and the Cowboys and Stampeders keep pace. The Eagles beat the Bulldogs, and the Div 2 picture begins to clarify. Only three more games before playoffs!
This week the games are split between Shouldice (4) and Airdrie (1). The final game of the day looks to be a barn burner, with the Wildcats taking on the Stampeders. Don't forget to wear pink and support the Canadian Cancer Society!
