The Somerville Pop Warner football program is running on all cylinders thanks to Roger Desrochers and all the people who help support the program. Roger Desrochers has been the president of Pop Warner in Somerville for over 8 years. He has been involved in the program for over 22 years. Roger originally started off as an assistant coach when his kids were old enough to play. His seven year old had made the E team and since he knew he would be there at all the practices, it made sense to help out the league any way he could.
