Who we are and where we play!


The Saint-Leonard Cougars Junior football team will be competing for its sixteenth season in the Ontario Football Conference (O.F.C.). The O.F.C. has a rich history and tradition of excellence and many junior players over the years have gone on to great careers in the C.I.S., N.C.A.A., C.F.L. and the N.F.L.

The O.F.C. is an affiliate member of the Canadian Junior Football League (C.J.F.L.), which consists of 3 regional conferences (Ontario/Quebec, the Prairies & British Columbia) with a total of 20 teams all competing for a national championship the “Canadian Bowl”. This year the national championship game will be hosted by the Champion of the Prairie Football Conference (P.F.C.).

The Saint-Leonard Cougars can offer an elite alternative to playing institutional football by exposing you to a caliber of football that is extremely competitive and challenging.
