Welcome to Novato Youth Football & Cheer!  We are a non-profit, 501(c)3 tax exempt youth football and cheer organization dedicated to teaching the fundamentals of football and cheer to our youth as well as focusing on academics. We are a member of the AYF Mountain Valley Conference. Novato Youth Football and Cheer is very fortunate to have the many board members, coach volunteers, and parent volunteers that keep our program moving forward. Our partnership with the school districts, the two local high schools and generous sponsors allows us to provide our kids with the best fields, equipment and facilities. I encourage each of you to get involved in 2009!

June 2010 Novato Youth Football Adds Instructional Division
for 5-7 year olds - The "Rumble Bees"

During the upcoming 2010 season, Novato Youth Football will be offering a new level of play geared toward providing five to seven year olds an instructional experience in tackle youth football. Called the "Tiny Mites," the intent of this new level of play is to allow younger children who have previously not been old enough to play tackle football an opportunity to learn the basics of tackle football in a non-competitive, instructional environment. Like all other Novato Youth Football players, participants will be issued a full set of gear including helmet, shoulder pads and leg pads and each player will be responsible for their own practice jersey, practice pants and girdle.

The team name will be the "Rumble Bees." With a primary focus on training, the Rumble Bees coaching staff will not focus on weekly games. Instead, they will focus on teaching players the fundamentals of both offensive and defensive tackle football and while there may be opportunities players for the Rumble Bees to scrimmage teams from other towns, instructional guidance will be the primary focus of the program. In keeping with the younger age group, practice times and frequency will be reduced relative to Novato Youth Football's older, competitive programs. Siimilarly, prices are reduced to $200 and there are no additional jersey costs involved.

If you and your child have an interest in this program, please contact Dave Arndt, Rumble Bees Head Coach at 415 798 4542 or davethecoach@comcast.net for more details.

   
June 2010 THANK YOU COACH WOOD!!!!

Coach Michael Wood has decided to step away (hopefully temporarily!) from coaching for now. Coach Wood has been part of Novato Youth Football and its predecessor, Novato Pop Warner, since 1996. He has served as an assistant coach and then as a
Head Coach for nine years, including the last three years as Head Coach of the 2007 Killer Bees, the 2008 Stingers, and the 2009 Yellow Jackets. During this time Coach Wood has mentored hundreds of young men. His dedication to our program and to
community service is an example for us all. During his lengthy service, Coach Wood has spent over two thousand hours on the practice field and the game field and changed the lives of countless Novato families. Coach Wood has led his teams to City Championships, Division Championships, Conference Championships, Regional Championships, and National Championship appearances. Coach Wood has taught his teams to win with dignity and to handle adversity with class. Please join the Board of Novato Youth Football in extending a heartfelt thank you to Coach Wood and his family. NO MERCY!
