POLICY STATEMENT: It is the policy of MYFL to provide instructional football to all children that meet the age; weight requirements. At this time we must limit the number of players to our teams to 35 players per team so that every player will have the opportunity to demonstrate his/her ability and desire to play youth Football in the Town of Marshfield. This means the Coaching Staff will do their best to instruct each child. Please be patient as this can be a sizable task with the teams this size. Qualified Coaches provide this instruction. The Board of Directors and MYFL support the Coaches in their decisions as to what position, how often, and when a child will play. Their decision is based on their observation of each child's abilities and strengths. Football is a physical, contact sport and our goal is to allow each child to progress at his/her own pace, learn about Football, have fun, and remain healthy. Safety is a major concern for the Coaching staff and much of their decisions are based on the welfare of each child. Proper tackling techniques are a must. All Children must master proper tackling techniques prior to Playing. Parents concerns must be addressed either directly and privately with the Head Coaches or MYFL'S Board of Directors. We will not condone comments or ridicule from the sidelines at games or practices.

PARENTS' RESPONSIBILITIES: We expect Parents to be fair, objective, and interested in your child's experience and development. Your personal encouragement is a critical component to your child's effort and confidence. By being the type of fan that will make Marshfield Youth Football the example for other communities to emulate.
