Announcements

Dear Warrior Family,

It is with a heavy heart that I share this update with you all. After much consideration, prayer, and discussion with the FCA State Director, we have made the incredibly difficult decision not to continue with our 2025 football and cheer season.

This outcome is not what we had hoped for, and we understand the disappointment it may bring to our athletes, families, and supporters. Please know that this decision was not made lightly and was guided by what we believe is in the best interests of our organization.

I want to recognize and thank our board members, who have worked diligently to explore every possible avenue to continue this season. Their dedication, time, and commitment to our athletes and program have been truly commendable, and we are incredibly grateful for their efforts.

On behalf of the entire team, I also want to sincerely thank each and every one of you for your unwavering support, dedication, and participation in our program. The strength and spirit of the Warrior family are unmatched, and we are truly grateful for all that you bring to our community.

Although this season will not move forward, we remain steadfast in our mission. FCA continues to work in the Quad Cities to reach coaches and athletes for Christ. We are also actively growing our other sports teams and developing new Huddle groups within our local schools.

For those of you who wish to continue your football and cheer journey, we want to provide you with information on other opportunities in the Quad Cities area. Currently, the Chino Valley Cougars are the only other NAYF team nearby. For those willing to travel further, Mingus in Cottonwood and Camp Verde also have NAYF teams. Additionally, there are three AYFL teams in the area: the Avengers, Hitman, and Badgers.

Thank you for your understanding and support during this time. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns.

Our Mission

Our missions is to create an outreach for kids who want to learn the sport of football through a Christian faith based program. Our coaches work as disciples of Christ spreading the word to the children we mentor through our words and actions. We incorporate weekly Bible studies into our program as well as prayer before and after each practice. Our goal is to make Christ first in all of our actions and we pride ourselves on being focused on the health and safety of our athletes. We will teach the kids in our programs the fundamentals of football and the techniques needed to thrive in this league as well as prepare them for high school athletics.
