Bulldogs in Action!

Welcome to the online home of the Brighton Bulldogs Football and Cheer. Our athletes  represent excellence both on and off the field, and we set our expectations high: study hard, train hard, and work hard. Our athletics program is unparalleled thanks to a supportive community of parents and fans. Our coaching staff specializes in building better athletes, students, and citizens. We emphasize teamwork and demand the personal commitment to play like champions—every practice, every game, every time.

The goal of Brighton Bulldogs Football and Cheer is is to win, but that is NOT the primary goal.   The primary goal is to teach youth the benefits of team sports in a safe manner, to nurture their growth potential, and to provide them an opportunity to compete with their peers.

The Livingston County Area Junior Football League (LCAJFL) is announcing a rebranding to the Kensington Valley Youth Football Conference! The KVYFC or KVC for short is a youth football organization serving parts of Livingston and Oakland Counties.

The KVC is intended to provide a safe, fun learning environment for the youth of our community. We strive to create an opportunity for kids to work together as a team toward common goals. We emphasize sportsmanship, teamwork and respect for authority figures (League Officials, Coaches and Game Officials), players and other spectators.

We felt that since half of our membership was outside of Livingston County, a simple rebrand was in order. Since the original KVC was made up of the same teams in our current conference, it made sense to rebrand as the original Kensington Valley Conference! Same great organizations, same focus, new name!

Over the next few weeks, you will see our website changing to our new name, logo and color scheme.

Welcome to the new Kensington Valley Youth Football Conference!

Toughness is a skill and can be practiced and improved like all other skills.

Play Hard, Play Smart and Play Together”. Hard means with effort, determination and courage; Smart means with proper execution and poise, Together means unselfishly, trusting your teammates and doing everything possible not to let them down.

"If you want to win, do the ordinary things better than anyone else does them day in and day out"

Positive & Enthusiastic volunteers needed to coach with Brighton Bulldogs Football and Cheer!  

Coaching a youth sports football team can be a tremendously rewarding experience, giving you the opportunity to help young players learn the game of football in a fun and safe atmosphere. Time dedication, character and integrity are a must. Football experience is preferred for the older teams, but not required for the younger teams or for assistant coaches.

For cheerleading, we are seeking energetic, motivated coaches and assistant coaches who enjoy working with youth between the ages of 5 to 13 years old and young women participate in cheerleading. Additionally, the bond created by a parent coaching their child is one that will be cherished and remembered for years to come. 

Enthusiasm, time dedication, character and a positive attitude are a must!

If you want to be a coach please download and complete the Coaching Application here.
