Buffalo Region (Section VI) Coach of the Week
Orchard Park head coach Jeff Weiss was named the Buffalo region Coach of the Week for the week ending Sunday, May 3. Weiss has served as Orchard Park’s varsity girls flag head football coach since the program’s inception in 2022. Additionally, he has been the school’s boys junior varsity tackle head coach since 2021 and the flag football head coach at D’Youville University since the program’s founding in 2025.
During his time with the Quakers, his teams have compiled a 36-10-1 overall record, including playoffs. In 2025, Orchard Park won the Section VI Class A title and played in the Far West Regionals. The Quakers have reached the sectional semifinals every season.
“My goal as a coach is to maximize the potential of each of my athletes by forming meaningful relationships, instilling confidence through preparation and encouragement, and helping them learn skills that are valuable beyond the playing field,” said Weiss. “I want to give back to my community and help create lifelong memories for my athletes.”
The Quakers have assisted with a flag football camp for athletes with disabilities through a program called High Five, and each season we host a “gold game” to raise money for pediatric cancer through the P.U.N.T. Pediatric Cancer Collaborative (Formerly P.U.N.T. Foundation)
Orchard Park is 5-3-2 in 2026, including key wins over West Seneca and Lockport.
