About Us

 It’s about all of us! 

The Future and the Past.

In 2023 the Hillsborough Dukes Football and Cheer organization and Hillsborough JR Raiders  Sports, Inc. (JR Raiders) merged to form one unified youth sports organization. Both organizations have a similar mission, to provide sports fundamentals and skill development to the youth in Hillsborough and surrounding towns. The merging of these two successful organizations will take the Hillsborough youth sports programs to the next level.

The two newly merged Football and Cheer programs agreed to the merger as the Duke - Raiders while the other sports will continue as they are known. In order to capture what the organization supports, the Board of Trustees has agreed to a DBA of Hillsborough Youth Sports. The teams under football and cheerleading will take on Boro as their identity representing Hillsborough Township, NJ.  

The parent organization is managed by a 6 person Board of Trustees composed of members from both organizations.  Oversight of each sport is managed by its sports directors. The organization offers organized youth activities in flag and tackle football, cheerleading, track & field, girls lacrosse and field hockey for youth in grades Kindergarten through 8th. We are committed to teaching the children the skills they need to have fun playing in a safe environment. Our players learn and apply the principles of sportsmanship, teamwork, discipline and dedication. Our philosophy is that all children need to get into the game to learn and have fun.  We emphasize the fundamentals and progression of skill development, which will prepare them to participate at higher levels of competition as they progress through the different levels within their sport of choice.

The dedication and hard work of volunteers is a critical component to making this a successful program.  We welcome those looking to assist with coaching, directing, being a team parent, trainer or just lending a hand. See our contact page for ways to reach the appropriate person or area of interest.

All sporting events follow the regulations as established by the Hillsborough Township governing body and by the Hillsborough Township Board of Education. This includes no use, possession or consumption of alcohol, tobacco (any form) or behavior that is inappropriate at any event, practice or game regardless of location. Anyone not following these regulations will be subject to actions as required to mitigate any situation or breach of regulations by the appropriate authorities and further action including fines and removal from the program by this organization.
