PYFA Monthly Meeting...

The next PYFA Monthly Meeting will be held on Sunday, October 18th at 6:00 PM at the Equipment Building at Pitsenbarger Park . If you have any ideas or concerns, please email and let us know. You can email any topics for discussion to swaffordjesse@gmail.com.

This meeting will reveal the seedings for the following week's tournament action and is not open to the public.

League Changes...

The 2009 season is the dawn of a new era in the Piqua Youth Football Association. Beginning this season, we will offer 3rd & 4th Grade Contact as well as 5th & 6th Grade Contact. 1st & 2nd Graders will play in a Flag League.

The Flag League will consist of 6 sponsored teams and will focus on the fundamentals of the game. If your company is interested in becoming a sponsor, please contact Tom Mason for more information.

The 3rd & 4th Grade/5th & 6th Grade Contact Leagues will consist of an "A" (5th & 6th Grade) and "B" (3rd & 4th Grade) squads. Team pairings are as follows...

Falcons/Jaguars

Giants/Cardinals

Browns/Patriots

Eagles/Colts

49ers/Packers

Cowboys/Titans

The "B" team will evolve into the "A" team in the coming seasons so that players learn the same fundamentals during the 4 year contact league span. Teams will be allowed to condition and walk through plays together but no hitting drills will be permitted between the two teams. A 15 man "A" roster must be submitted prior to the first game of the season. A 4th Grader will be allowed to play on the "A" squad with the parents permission. If you have questions regarding the league changes, please email them to swaffordjesse@gmail.com.

The divisional breakdowns will continue for the 2009 season...

5th & 6th Grade Contact League

Red	Blue
Falcons	Eagles
Giants	49ers
Browns	Cowboys

3rd & 4th Grade Contact League

Red	Blue
Jaguars	Colts
Cardinals	Packers
Patriots	Titans

Each team will play the other two teams in their division twice in the regular season while they will play teams from the opposing division once in the regular season.

Each division winner will receive a bye in the first round of the playoffs. The #2 seed in each division will play the #3 seed from the opposing division.

Weight Limitations...

Article VII - Section 1 (PYFA By-Laws)...

Effective with the playing season of 2007, NO PLAYER (5th & 6th Grade Contact) WEIGHING MORE THAN 118 LBS. with game pants, including pant pads, and cleats will be permitted to advance the ball or be in the offensive backfield.

Time of weigh-in is 12:00 PM every Sunday and 45 minutes (5:45) prior to Monday night games. If weigh-in is missed, the player forfeits his chance to run that week.

Players will only have one weigh-in per week with no exceptions to the times listed above. Players that qualify to weigh-in will be determined by head coach and president.

A 3rd & 4th Grade weight limit is still being discussed and will be announced here when a final verdict is agreed upon.

PYFA would like to thank the sponsors who help keep the league as one of the finest in the area.

If anyone would like to become a PYFA sponsor you can contact us via email at swaffordjesse@gmail.com, via P.O. Box #815 (Piqua, Ohio 45356), or by calling PYFA president Brandon Hartzell at 773-3695.
