About the Troy Cowboys Youth Football Association (TYFA)
The Troy Cowboys are part of the Northern Youth Football League (NYFL). The league includes Brandon Jr. Blackhawks, Clarkston Chiefs, Lake Orion Dragons, Lapeer Steelers, Oxford Jr. Wildcats, Waterford Corsairs and Davison Cardinals.
About the NFYL
The focus being on community, the NFYL has the support of local school districts and/or governments and plays at some of the best facilities with five of the nine franchises playing on field turf. This is the same surface that the Detroit Lions and University of Michigan use.
The league is currently divided into three divisions: Freshmen (8 and 9 year olds), Junior Varsity (10 and 11 year olds) and Varsity (12 and 13 year olds). Ages are based on September 1 of the current year.
The season consists of 8 regular season games that are played on Saturday or Sunday. There are no practices or games over Labor Day weekend. When possible, night games are added to increase the playing experience and atmosphere.
