Butler Lil' Tornados Traveling Football Organization

 

Welcome to the internet home of the Butler Lil' Tornados Travelling Football Organization!

We are excited to offer your son the opportunity to learn, practice and play the game of football, and your daughter the opportunity to learn, practice and perform athletic cheerleading on a traveling team.  One of the most important aspects of this new opportunity will be their opportunity to develop personal moral character that will promote their future success both on and off the field of play for the rest of their lives.
