AUBURN HILLS YOUTH FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION / MAKOS FOOTBALL: Welcome

Spring 2012 brings a fresh start for many teams and organizations in the football community. The NEW Auburn Hills Youth Football Association (AHYFA) and the MAKOS, an Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) Club bring select tackle youth football to Oakland County.

A  NEW and truly developmental "House" league will be offered on the Freshman Level:
