Community Captains

Under head coach Dan Heinrichs, the Upper Perk football team continues the tradition of our “Community Captain” recognition program to honor and recognize community members who have put the community before themselves and who serve the community of the Upper Perkiomen Valley with pride and continued efforts to keep “the Valley” a great and safe place in which to reside.

Before the start of each home football game, the selected “Community Captain” walks onto the field alongside the football team’s player captains where they witness the coin toss. After the coin toss, the “Community Captains” remain at midfield while an announcement is made describing the individual’s contributions to the community as they are celebrated for their service to the Upper Perkiomen community and its residents.
