Goals
The Madison County Pirates are dedicated to assisting the community. We do not pay our players, coaches, or board members and any profit at the end of the season is directed to our mission. We have three missions...
1) We support and mentor the kids of the Pendleton Junior Football League. In fact, more and more we find ourselves becoming a brother / sister organization. The Pirates help out with PJFL camps and clinics though teaching of the fundamentals of football. We are working to improving the football fields, the same ones PJFL have played on for many years. We strive to provide a role model thought our actions on the field showing the kids how football can last longer then just high school or college. Yet, in return, PJFL allows us to use their field equipment, helps provide support at our events, and has been our strongest supporter since day one.
2) To support the community through different avenues. We rent the park to practice and a percentage of each game ticket goes to Falls Creek Park. This money in return is invested back into the park for the entire community. The Pirates also conduct their business in Pendleton spending community money within the community.
3) To have fun. Unlike most amateur adult sports like basketball, softball, or flag football that are easily found in most communities, organized contact football is rare. Many of us though that our senior year of high school would be the last time we would ever get the chance to play. The Pirates are a chance to play the game we love.
