Our Beliefs

AYF members believe that each of us can make a difference where we live and how we live. AYF believes that ALL kids deserve equal opportunities, special attention and respect.

AYF's philosophy is to allow local members to govern themselves while remaining non-intrusive.

AYF is the fastest growing youth organization in America, founded in 1996 American Youth Football has grown to over 450,000 members with leagues in all 50 states, Canada, Mexico, Western Europe, and Asia.

AYF welcomes everyone, regardless of financial capabilities, location, participation, and pledges to support youth football and to do its best to help those leagues who need help in order to build stronger communities.

Giving Back is the mission of AYF. Programs range from: financial grants to leagues who need help; shoes for kids programs sponsored by Nike Global; field development in conjunction with Field Turf; Rising Stars camps, which send inner-city kids to football camp; recognizing administrators who are making a difference in the AYF Hall of Fame; in partnership with ADAMS USA, making league safety and communication a priority.

 Our Goals

  1. To provide a wholesome competitiveness within the scope of our rules and regulations that will protect the youth athlete and cheerleader.
     

  2. To teach the fundamentals of football and coordinate cheerleader activities.
     

  3. To provide a responsible football and cheerleader program where none is provided by the public schools.
     

  4. To influence good sportsmanship, teamwork, highest moral and physical standards and the importance of scholarship and academic achievement.
     

  5. To lend leagues support with remaining NON-INTRUSIVE to local operations.
     

  6. To make Youth Football ALL-INCLUSIVE by not excluding participants based on superficial factors (such as weight).
