Youth Football League is for anyone entering fifth through eighth grade in the upcoming school year. A player cannot be 15 years old by Nov. 1, 2018.

The cost to participate is $80. Thirty dollars will be returned if you volunteer to work at various jobs at any of the home games. The season begins at home on Sunday, Aug. 19 against Sterling Newman.

The first practice of the season for fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth graders will be held on Monday, July 30 at 5 p.m. at the fields behind the Mendota High School bus garage.
