San Tan Youth Football League Eagles

The STYFL recently posted an article to their site informing interested parties of their Winter Scrimmages and Training Camp to take place in February.

“Our objective is to provide quality instruction of football fundamentals and conditioning for both new and returning players. Additionally, the players will get simulated game repetitions on a weekly basis where coaches can continue instruction in a game setting that is designed around teaching and training. Coaches will assemble different squads from each age group every week with the intent of getting quality match ups and creating learning opportunities for all participants.”

Follow the more tag below to view the FAQ which provides more details. Drew’s looking to play baseball, but we’re going to look into doing both. Should be fun…. hope to see some of you there. Oh, by the way, I think you can contact STYFL to buy the equipment at a discount. The kids are required to bring their own equipment.
