2024 Travel Tackle Football
The 703 United Lions are a Prince William County based travel football league with players from all the surrounding counties in all areas to include Stafford, Arlington, Alexandria, Loudoun, Fairfax, and Fredericksburg. Formed in 2020, we are supported by caring parents, dedicated children, a dynamic coaching staff, and community involvement/sponsors. We are a feeder program for multiple high schools and play our home games at Saunders and Benton Middle.
The 703 United Youth Sports Football program is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization, that focuses on the development of football, flag, and cheerleading techniques for children ages 4-14. We stress the importance of sportsmanship, safety, positive competition and fun to our youth athletes. 703 United is a part of the Virginia American Youth Football Alliance which is affiliated with AYF (American Youth Football).
