The Bears are a non-profit organization that has seven football teams and three cheerleading squads for boys and girls age 5-14. Players and cheerers come from Beach Park, and also from surrounding communities.
Other members of the NWYFL include Arlington Heights, Elk Grove, Mount Prospect, Palatine, Schaumburg, and Streamwood.
