Welcome to Cowboys Football

The Calgary Cowboys Football Club began operating in Northwest Calgary in 1984 and celebrated 40 years of continuous operations out of the Brentwood Community Clubhouse in 2023. From the outset, the Cowboys combined a love of sport with an emphasis on developing young people as responsible citizens, not just athletes. Cowboys players are fully committed to their support of charities including the Ronald McDonald House, The Calgary Foodbank, The Alberta Children’s Hospital, Shriners and others.

The Cowboys organization has grown significantly over the past 40 years, introducing nearly 2,500 young athletes to the sport of football over that time and culminating in the present day 2024 structure of a total of four teams split between the divisions of Atom, Peewee, Bantam and Spring Football. Four teams means, each season, more than 150 young athletes play in a Cowboys uniform.

City and Provincial Championships are nice rewards but, as an organization, we are most proud of the fact that Cowboys players learn the benefits of teamwork & striving for goals whilst competing within a safe, supportive environment surrounded by teammates and friends.
