ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!!!
August in NW Florida means football and cheer season has begun!
Football player certification starts Tuesday August 10th. All Mite Division parents and parents of children new to the GCYSA are strongly encouraged to have their child at their park certification night. If a child can’t make it to their designated certification night, the parent can bring their child to the GCYSA office located at 6445 Old Hwy 90 in Milton from 12 noon to 6pm on MONDAYS only. If they come to their parks certification or come to the office BEFORE the certification night, there will be no charge. However, if a child fails to certify on or before their parks certification night there will be a $10 late administrative charge. We had to do this to help ease the cost and time it takes to process the high number of children that certify at the last minute.
For coaches & team moms, we will no longer utilize the method of faxing rosters in to the Alliance each week. All rosters will be emailed to GCYSArosters@gmail.com . Forms can be located on the forms link on this site.
Please check the GCYSA Calendar for important dates for the upcoming season.
