The purpose of GMFCA is to provide an environment where children ages 5 -13 can compete with other youth in the community. Our purpose is to emphasize physical fitness, sportsmanship, and to develop a sense of community pride.
GMFCA believes that children who are involved in youth sport programs develop key values like discipline, commitment, teamwork, and leadership.
Our coaches attend coaching clinics sponsored by the NFL, USA Football Association, and USATF. All of our adult volunteers are screened annually using Act 33 and Act 34 clearance process.
Our organization utilizes the fundraising and sponsor proceeds to cover our facility rental fees, purchase equipment and uniforms, cover administrative costs (insurance and fees), and provide an end of season banquet with gifts for each child who participates.
