Rebels Care: Because Every Kid Deserves to Play
Rebels Care is a support program of KC Rebels Youth designed to make sure money is never the reason a child can’t play. We know that sports save lives—by building discipline, confidence, teamwork, and a safe community around our youth.
Through Rebels Care we help cover:
Registration fees
Uniforms and shoes
Equipment and supplies
Transportation assistance (when available)
Small emergency needs that keep youth engaged and supported
Rebels Care exists so our young people can focus on being kids running, learning, growing, and dreaming while we stand behind them with love, structure, and support.
We see you.
We believe you.
And we’re here to help.

Youth ages 4–18 participating in KC Rebels Youth sports (football, cheer, track, and future programs)
