EYFCA - About Us

VISION: Enthusiasm for youth football and cheer within the Eudora community.

MISSION: Teach age-appropriate fundamentals in a structured, competitive, safe and fun setting.  Teach the athletic and virtuous elements of these sports.

EYFCA provides a structured setting for youngsters between the ages of 5 to 12.  Our volunteer-based organization works to promote the game of football and cheering within Eudora because of our belief in its virtuous and athletic benefits to kids. We serve approximately 120 families. Our coaches set goals centered on team merits and athletic fundamentals, taught in a positive environment. Our football teams play in competitive divisions and our cheerleaders are there to support them. 

Each athlete will spend roughly 4-5 hours per week with their coaches and peers, which helps build a sense of community and responsibility in the youngsters.  The program is made up of kids from all types of backgrounds, which we believe is the foundation to a positive future for kids, building a sense of self that is less centered on the individual and more centered on a team ethic and a sense of community. Our organization provides scholarships to children who qualify, providing opportunities to as many youngsters as possible. We estimate that our volunteer board, coordinators and coaches donate over 3,000 hours of their personal time annually to help ensure a future for this program.  We believe in our community, children and that athletics is a great mechanism to enhance young lives.
