MGYFA will not take friend requests into consideration when creating team rosters. We will align students from the same schools into the same teams, however we aren't able to guarantee that all kids from each school will be aligned to a single team. One of the goals of MGYFA program is to have our athletes build relationships with their future teammates, and combining teams with players from other schools is a way to help the kids build these new friendships. Since MGYFA Flag practices are all in the same location and scheduled at the same time, carpooling for practices is not an issue.
We are also not able to honor Coach Requests or Coaching Partnership requests. Depending on the number of coaches, and the schools that their children are aligned with, we may need to break them apart in order to have qualified coaches overseeing each of our teams. Our objective is to ensure that we have a great experience for all of our players and we are focusing on building a successful Maple Grove Youth Football program and not individual flag football teams.
Trusted Coaches
As we kick-off the season, know your athletes are in good hands. Our coaches do a great job as volunteers developing our players.
To ensure the best experience for players, parents and coaches, we have engaged Trusted Coaches to ensure all our Coaches are:
1. USA Football Certified;
2. Pass a National background check;
3. Have updated concussion training;
4. Have completed "Child Safety Training"
