Our Mission
- We pledge to work diligently to impact each and every participant by continually working to instill in them a sense of purpose, confidence, and a need for a strong work ethic.
- Our future initiatives are geared toward scholastic achievements. We recognize these achievement during our monthly social activities.
- We also pledge to work to instill a desire for every member of the Robbins/Cal-Park Eagles’ Football and Cheerleaders to be successful in attaining their life's goals.
- As a tradition, our coaches remain connected to our athletes and scholars throughout their high school and college lives.
- Robbins/Cal-Park Eagles coaches go above and beyond; they continue to mentor, support and encourage former members by attending their non-Robbins/Cal-Park Eagles games and also maintain a lasting relationship that reaches far beyond adolescence. Due to this extended brotherhood many former Robbins Eagles return and give back through numerous resources including coaching and volunteering throughout their adult lives.
- We work as an extended family, an extended team, and supply the strength our beloved Robbins/Cal-Park Eagles require in order to build, maintain and provide positive avenues with options and opportunities for our youth for generations to come.
