On Saturday, July 8, at 7:00pm, the Cherokee County Bruins Semipro Football organization will kick off its inaugural season at Veteran’s Park in Canton. Admission is free. 

The team is owned by John Little of Woodstock, Randy Fowler of Canton, and Patrick Kellaher of Dothan, Alabama. This group is excited to bring action-packed football to Cherokee County and hopes to be a resource for local youth, middle school, and high school football players to gain knowledge and skills as well as a platform for former high school and college athletes to pursue their playing careers in an impactful way. 

In addition to playing games, the Bruins also hold youth camps. More than 50 children attended the team’s first camp, which was held in May. The Bruins plan to continue making meaningful contributions to the community while growing its fan base and gaining local support throughout its inaugural season and beyond, as they seek to put a championship caliber team on the field to represent Cherokee County.
