Air Quality & Practices
Monday, 8/20/18, 10:30am
The air quality is currently hovering on the border with the unacceptable range. We will monitor the situation and post an update here and send an email around 4:00pm regarding practices.
We follow the OSAA guidelines for when to cancel practices and/or move them indoors. We utilize the Air Quality Monitor to make the final decisions.
Medical Form
Reminder: The TVYFL medical form is required this year for all tackle players. It must be signed by a doctor or nurse and cannot be stamped. It must be turned in during equipment handout (before any equipment can be issued). You cannot practice without the form either!
Equipment Handout - Flag
Flag Equipment: 8/20 at Evergreen side field at 5:00pm (also a parent meeting at that time)
Registration Fees for 2018
Glencoe Youth Football has established the following fees for 2018:
Flag Football: $50 per player
There is no payment plan or discount for flag football.
Tackle Football (3rd through 8th grade): $250
There is a $25 discount if you register between April 1 through June 1. After June 1, the registration fee will bounce back to $250.
Fundraising Option
There will be an opportunity for you to raise funds to earn up to $200 ($100 if there is a family discount already applied) to help offset the tackle registration fee. More information will be provided over the summer.
Family Discount for Tackle Football only
If you are registering more than one tackle player in your family, you will receive a $100 discount on the 2nd, 3rd or more players for those in 3rd-8th grade. In order for the registration system to recognize that you are registering multiple players, please register all of your players at the same time. On the Review Page, there is a link near the bottom to "Register Another Player" - please click on this link to ensure that all of your players are registered within the same order.
Payment Options
Payment for flag football will be expected in full at the time of registration. You will have the option to pay in full for tackle football or via payment plan. The initial payment will be paid the day you register your child and then the program will deduct the remaining payments on July 1 and August 1. You can make a payment via credit card or through your checking account. The remaining payment will be taken from the original form of payment unless you change it prior to June 1 or August 1. NOTE: There is a $2 per payment processing fee when you select the payment plan.
Changes to 3rd/4th Grade Tackle
Beginning with the 2018 season, all 3rd/4th grade teams for GYF will play "Rookie Tackle" football. This is FULL CONTACT TACKLE football. However, there are some differences with standard football. Namely, it is 8-on-8 and is played on a smaller field size. There are no kickoffs, punts or PATs. Check out USA Football's website for complete rules and FAQ. - Click here for more information.
This differs from the 2017 season, where GCF played "Contact Flag" football.
