About the Sooner Classic.

The Sooner Classic began in 1999, under the umbrella of the Union Youth Football Association. It was envisioned that local teams could have the opportunity to compete in a post season tournament against other talented teams in and around the Tulsa area, across the State of Oklahoma, and from surrounding states as well.

The first year the Sooner Classic brought in teams from Nebraska, Kansas, Texas, Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma.

Each of the teams that has been in the Classic have brought with them highly talented players hoping to see how they would stack up against similar teams from the southwest and the State of Oklahoma. The rules have changed a bit since 1999, but nonetheless, the Classic has grown to be the premiere post season tournament in the Southwest Region of the United States.

There have been many exciting and challenging games during the Sooner Classic Championships. Texas is always a favorite as are the teams from Kansas City, and Springdale Arkansas just to name a few. The competition, just like the number of teams, continues to increase in level each year.

Many fields are used to get the competition done within the two day tournament. The Championship Games are played on the finest high school venue in the State of Oklahoma—Union Tuttle Stadium.

Union Public Schools has been very helpful as have the retailers in the area to meet the needs of all the teams attending the Sooner Classic.

This is truly some of the finest competition from the Southwestern United States you’ll see in a two-day span. Whether you’re a team looking for a fun and competitive tournament or just someone who enjoys watching youth football, be sure to attend the Sooner Classic Championships.

We Look Forward to Seeing You There!
