The longstanding Wilmington Eagles and newly established Cape Fear Flight organizations merged
to form the Wilmington Lions United. The founding members recognized the potential impact that coming together
could have on the surrounding community. The Wilmington Lions are committed to
UNITING both the youth and the community!
We have a team of experienced coaches and dedicated volunteers who work together to
provide the best possible experience for our athletes.
The Wilmington Lions United is a non-profit organization focused primarily on unifying the youth in
Wilmington, NC by providing them the opportunity to participate in competitive football and cheerleading.
Our goal is to not only teach the fundamentals of football and cheer but to also help our youth build character, sportsmanship, confidence and lasting relationships. The importance of accountability, responsibility, and a strong sense of community are essential to the organization.
The Lions strive to provide a structured, safe and secure environment for
learning life skills for use both on and off the field!
