If the weather warrants practice being canceled ahead of time, we will make the decision by 530, and immediately send out a text from Team Connect.
If we are at practice and the weather necessitates the cancellation of practice, we will send out a text to come get your child. If we feel the weather poses a risk, we will move to the inside of school. In this case, players should be picked up, in the front of OHS. Always drive by practice field first and then to the front of OHS.
Please make sure you signed up on Team Connect to receive text messaging

Oakville Junior Tiger Football
Mission Statement
A TIGER Tradition since 1998. The Mission of the OJT is to teach children the fundamental skills of football, while implementing and encouraging good sportsmanship, honesty, integrity, courage and loyalty for oneself and others; and for all Oakville Jr athletes, parents, and spectators to follow the rules of the game
History
The OJT program was founded in 1998 as an independent, organization dedicated to sponsoring youth football teams for middle school-aged children, in the Oakville High School area.
The Association could not exist without the encouragement and support provided by the Oakville High School football program and the Mehlville School District.
However, the Oakville Junior Tiger program is not funded nor staffed by the Mehlville School District.
