It exists to teach players the basic skills of table football, teamwork, and good sportsmanship, under the guidance of certified youth coaches.  Our all-volunteer staff of administrators coaches and team managers are dedicated to offering tackle football, flag football, and cheerleading programs to Prince William County and surrounding communities. Football is considered one of the most demanding and rewarding of all little league sports. Therefore, it requires a huge commitment to the program from both player and parent.

Our intent is to focus on the true meaning of the sport and provide a vehicle that allows children to come away feeling energized, educated and eager to continue because of the experience they had growing up in this program. Our league is dedicated to making a long-lasting impact in our community; by teaching valuable Life Lessons that go far beyond the Game and the playing field. We are a character building and self-esteem program that cares for each and everyone in our community. DCSC's Motto Build Different is more than a slogan it is a standard of goals we teach --  hard bring long-term success.  Life is filled with wins and losses  our end game is to ensure our kids don't give up when they lose.
