Football Season is Here
July 27, 2010
Football season is officially kicking off this Saturday with the first day of registration. Registrations will be held from 9am-3pm at the Community Center on July 31, Aug 7, and Aug 14. The registration fee will be $80. Players that have not participated in the CYFA during either of the last two seasons will need to provide a birth certificate.

Our uniform vendor will be on site to size for uniforms. Players do not have to be present to be registered, but if they are not sized at a registration event they will need to come back during another registration or make arrangements to be sized at another time prior to the first practice. Registration forms will be available, but if you want to save a little time on Saturday you can print one from the website and fill it out before you come by.

If you have an interest in coaching, please drop us an email or find one of the Executive Committee members at registration. Registration numbers grow every year and there is always the strong possibility of adding teams. If no slots come available this fall, we can fill you in on how to get your name submitted in the spring.

Down, Set...
May 17, 2010
The blistering heat of summer has not even set in yet and school is still in session, but football season is quickly approaching. The first registration is only 75 days out and practices will start in only 3 months.

We had an unprecedented spring for coaching applications as 31 applications were submitted for head coaching positions for the upcoming season. While that is impressive to say the least, 16 of those applications were for the Rookie league alone. We still need coaches in the Mini Camper league and the Semi-Pro league and while the depth chart is deep for Rookie coaches, we could use more applications in the Pro league as well. We have added teams in at least one league every year for the past several years and we hope this year is no exception.

Our association is only as good as our coaches and without them we do not exist. If you are interested in coaching or know someone that is, please contact the Executive Committee as soon as possible about getting involved.

Football season is only a short seven months away. The CYFA is beginning its annual process of selecting vendors for uniforms, referees, scorekeepers, etc, and we would like to hear from you.
