Jeremy Ogden

I work for the Texas Army National Guard. I have lived in Buda since 2018 from Montana. As I moved I was blessed to get the opportunity to continue to coach youth football with the Jr Jaguars. I have coached youth football since 2010. I have 2 boys one who plays with the Jr Jaguars and the other for the Jags at Johnson High School. I love all aspects of the game, I believe that it teaches the players more than a game.

Niki Sotkovski
 | Team Mom
I was born and raised in Dallas but have been in the Hill Country area for 9 years now. Since 2017 we’ve been here in Buda where I am a kinesiologist, a yoga instructor, a business owner, a wife, and a mother of three wild boys! It took some persuading to let them play football but since I found the Jr Jaguars organization, I couldn’t help but get involved. The first season my son played football I volunteered as the team mom while I was 7 months pregnant! Those next few months I saw our son grow to become an amazing leader and hard worker. As I was sending him off to his game, I was delivering our next Buda Jr Jaguars boy to play football in the upcoming years. It will be our third season now to be with the Jr Jaguars and I am thrilled that our whole family is involve. We couldn’t have been blessed with a better organization and family of parents to be raising our kids with. | Email: [email protected]

I am honored to not only be doing what I love in the same community I grew up in but also in the same school system I attended. I have been married to my amazing husband of 19 years and we have three wonderful children and one on the way. Football has always been a huge part of our family dynamic. Our oldest son was very active in football junior high through high school. Boy did we love to be in the stands on Friday nights. He has since graduated so we are so happy that now our middle son absolutely loves football and now we get to be back in the stands cheering for our team. We have been a part of this organization for 5 years now. We have loved every moment of seeing our son excel in this league. This league has not only shown him the love of the game but has also taught him dedication and sportsmanship. I absolutely love being a part of this organization. We are anxiously waiting for our third child to be old enough to join the cheer squad, she’s only 4. The amount of time, love and dedication these coaches and staff give to our youth and our community is simply amazing . I am very excited and honored to be part of an organization that serves our youth in such a positive way. | Email: [email protected]

Augie Aleman
| Director of Football
I was born & raised in Austin TX. I played throughout my jr. high and high school years. Moved to Buda area in 1999 with my lovely wife and 2 kids (at that time). In 2010 my oldest played with the Capital City Bearcat and my oldest daughter cheered for them as well. It was a travel from North Austin to Buda so, we decided to let my oldest son finish out with the Bearcats and finding an organization for my daughter to cheer for closer to home finding the Buda Bandits and joining their organization to be amazing. Here I am still with them Now! I now coach the Buda Jaguars & Select Teams. My goal is to teach these young athletes the basics and fundamentals of the game & get them to the Next Level! “Jr Jag Nation” | Email: [email protected]
