About us

The Meadow Ridge Knights Football Club is a non-profit community service organization that coordinates and provides football activities for youth in the Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows area.

We provide opportunities for boys and girls, ages 5-18, to play football, flag football and cheerleading. We have a rich tradition of providing a successful football program. We are fortunate to have the support of our member families, volunteers, sponsors, local service groups, the Municipality of Maple Ridge, the Municipality of Pitt Meadows, the Local Rotary Clubs and the Province of British Columbia.
