The WYFC is only able to provide a quality experience for our children due to volunteering by our members. Volunteering has declined over the past few seasons. Therefore, a new policy is being implemented for our upcoming season.

Concession Volunteer Policy - Each family will be required to volunteer three (3) times to volunteer in the concession stand, clean up or spirit wear at the practice field or on game days. You will be required to sign up for time slots. If you do not volunteer nor do not show up for your assigned time slots, then your $200.00 deposit check will be cashed at the end of the season.

A $200.00 volunteer deposit check dated 12/1/2021, is required AT UNIFORM/EQUIPMENT PICK UP. This check will not be cashed and will be returned to you provided you volunteered 3 times in the concession stand, spirit wear or on the cleanup crew.

Each family will be required to sign a log at registration to acknowledge and agree to this policy.

Please note: Coaching is an additional activity and does not necessarily fulfill the volunteer requirements. If you are interested in coaching, please complete coaching form.

If you would also like to help in addition to the concession stand, we can use more help with these other activities. Please mark choices with a “1” for first choice and a “2” for your second choice. You will be contacted to coordinate your participation in at least one of the areas you choose.

Dear Cheerleaders & Parents/Guardians,

Welcome to the 2021 WYFC SEASON. The Wildcat Youth Football Club believes that cheerleading is a rewarding and exciting sport that teaches teamwork, dedication, sportsmanship, leadership, school spirit, and hard work. Both you and your parent/guardian should read the following information to ensure you fully understand both the responsibility and commitment expected of you as a WYFC cheerleader.

Please remember and consider the time and commitment this sport will require from both the student and parents. Your commitment will require active participation in the pre-season clinic, all practices and weekly games. There may also be a few other opportunities during the season to represent our City and our Club. These include the Community Days Parade and the Mayfield High School Varsity Game that we have been a part of in past years. Due to the fact that cheerleading is a team sport, one person’s inability to follow through on their commitment affects the entire squad. This means being committed to the football team and your squad.
