GYFCA INFO      

GYFCA is  an association that plays and cheers in the highly competitive and highly respected Pop Warner based organization.  We do not run a soft program here in this town.  If you want to play hard core football, we will welcome kids that want to learn,  have fun, play hard, and be rewarded for their effort.  Programs exist in the area that are more about not competing as hard or playing in a competitive environment and not part of Pop Warner.  The Grizzlies primarily serve kids from Carpentersville, Hampshire, East Dundee, Huntley, Lake In The Hills, Pingree Grove, Sleepy Hollow, and West Dundee that feed into Dundee Crown, Hampshire, Huntley, Jacobs, and St. Edwards high schools.

We accept kids outside of Gilberts and welcome everyone to our program and all families are treated with respect and treated like family.

Pop Warner has a legitimate playoff system for the teams that are fortunate enough to get there by competing and earning the right to be in the playoffs.  The Super Bowl is held every year in Orlando for most divisions and play levels.

Pop Warner also has a highly competitive cheer and dance program that competes at  a high level with real competitions throughout the season and after.

Pop Warner offers a scholastics program that rewards athletes who excel in the classroom.  They are honored every year at a regional banquet in March, and if some are fortunate to make it to national recognition, the rewards are even greater.

GYFCA is also the most economical football and cheer program in the area with no hidden fees for parents to worry about and we do not have to travel out of state to play regular season games or travel for long periods of time.

We also offer a true family atmosphere where everyone is respected and treated equally.  All kids are given an equal opportunity to earn their position on each team without politics or favortism or coddling.  Other programs use these tactics to lure and retain kids, but we do not share those beliefs.  Playing time is earned on ability in our program and nothing more and nothing less.  All parents and players are told that before they register and this is instilled throughout the season.  As many parents know, most programs in this area do not abide by this, but GYFCA believes in open and fair competition at all levels.
