This is a list junior colleges in the United States that field a football program. The two largest associations are the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) and California Community College Athletic Association (CCCAA).
In the NJCAA, of 512 member colleges, 53 sponsored a football program, as of November 2023. This reflects the elimination of football at seven Arizona community colleges in 2018;[1] one in Minnesota and one in North Dakota in 2019; [2] and one in Kansas in 2021.[3]
In California, of 114 community colleges in the state,[4] 67 sponsored a football program under the auspices of the CCCAA, as of November 2021.[5] This reflects the suspension of football at two CCCAA member institutions in 2020.[6][7]
As shown below, the NJCAA is organized into five conferences (or leagues): Kansas Jayhawk Community College Conference; Minnesota College Athletic Conference; Mississippi Association of Community & Junior Colleges; Northeast JC Football Conference; Southwest Junior College Football Conference; as well as Independents (no conference/league affiliation.)
The CCCAA divides its membership into two regions: Northern and Southern. Each region is divided into the National Conference and the American Conference. In Northern California, there are three conferences/leagues in the National and two in the American; in Southern California, there are three conferences/leagues in both the National and the American.
