Dear SYFA Families,

Registration for the upcoming season has officially closed, and we are incredibly grateful for the overwhelming support we’ve received this year.

The board, coaches, and volunteers have worked tirelessly to create an unforgettable experience for our young athletes, and your support has made it all possible.

We also appreciate your patience during this period of high demand. Now that registration is closed, we will conduct a closed-envelope draft to ensure fair and balanced teams. Late-registration athletes should expect to hear from their coach this week.

Please have your athlete ready for practice with the following:

Helmet
Mouthguard
Shoulder Pads

🌟 SYFA Draft Night Success! 🌟

We had an amazing night at the SYFA Draft, and we're thrilled to announce that thanks to the incredible turnout during registration, many of our divisions have expanded to a fourth team! This is going to make this season even more exciting! 🎉🏈
