Welcome Parents & Guardians:

We are very excited about the NEW team in town: The Klein Bengals!!!

Hello, Megan Smith here, Team Mom Coordinator for the Bengals football teams.  We will soon be accepting applications for the VERY rewarding position of Team Mom/Dad for the freshman, sophomore, junior, and senior teams.  If you’d like to volunteer your time and talents for this wonderful opportunity, working closely with the coaches and myself, please submit your letters of interest upon registering your child.

Duties of a Bengal Team Mom/Dad:
