10U HEAD TEAM MOM

Niketa Freeman is entering her second year as a team mom and couldn’t be more excited for the season ahead.

Her first year was an incredibly rewarding learning experience, and watching the boys grow, develop, and come together as a team was truly inspiring. Building positive relationships with the players was one of the most meaningful parts of the role — whether it was offering encouragement, sharing a laugh, lending an ear, or simply being there when a child needed comfort or support.

Youth football can present its challenges, but the teamwork, dedication, and joy that come together each Saturday morning make every effort worthwhile. Seeing the boys form strong bonds, lasting friendships, and a true sense of brotherhood both on and off the field is something truly special and priceless.

As she looks forward to the upcoming season, Niketa is excited for even more growth, learning, and new opportunities as she takes on a greater responsibility. With the incredible support of this amazing team and community, she is ready and eager for what’s to come.
