Academic All Americans

"Perfection is not attainable but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence." 
~Vince Lombardi

Pop Warner Little Scholars, Inc. is the only national youth sports organization in America that requires its participants to perform adequately in the classroom before permitting them to play. North Raleigh Wake Forest Athletics agrees that excellence in the classroom will shape the athlete we see on the field and we hold the up most importance to their lives off the field and to their future. If you have questions about our Scholastics Program, please email General Questions.

Each year, the most academically accomplished Pop Warner kids compete for Academic All-American status. This process begins at the association level and up through each of the eight Pop Warner regions to the national level.

In 2012, over 425,000 kids participated in Pop Warner. As our numbers once again reached record levels, 280+ First Team members, over 6,000 Second Team members and 3,500+ Honorable Mention scholars were named as Academic All-Americans at the National Level for 2012-2013.

The PWLS All-American Program requires a minimum 96% grade point average to apply for All-American status.

After the applications have been processed, Pop Warner determines National First Team All-Americans (35 football, 35 cheer per grade), National Second Team All-Americans and National Honorable Mention Scholars.
