A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT
We wish to welcome all of you to another exciting year of Pop Warner Football & Cheerleading. This year AVYAA hopes to place a special emphasis on sportsmanship. With all of the violence in professional sports along with some of the college sports, sportsmanship must be the number one priority. I hope all of you will be aware of his priority and when an act of sportsmanship is observed please recognize this and applaud these fine athletes.
The games are for youth not professional athletes. Good conduct refrains from being unsportsman-like toward team members, coaches, fans, and officials.
AVYAA is asking that all fans, team members, coaches and officials be treated with respect. Remember rude or inappropriate remarks toward team members, coaches and officials does not show support and is not acceptable behavior. Please keep this in mind during the games.
Thank You!
Introduction
Welcome to AVYAA (Almaden Valley Athletic Association), Pop Warner Football/Cheerleading. This handbook is designed to answer any questions that you may have about the league and serve as a reference guide throughout the season. We hope that your children have an exciting, positive football and cheering experience.
Pop Warner Youth Football and Cheerleading is a national affiliated Youth Football/Cheerleading association known as Pop Warner Little Scholars Inc. Currently it has 370,000 players and participants nationwide. Almaden Valley Youth Athletic Association is part of the Pacific Southwest Region and south division of Peninsula Pop Warner Conference. This means that in regular season play, we compete against any of the following teams:
We normally play eight regular season games, with four home and four away, plus a jamboree. Practice begins Aug 1st with games beginning the first week in September and going through October. This is subject to change. The Cheer Competition and Football Playoffs go from the conference level all the way up to the National Championships; this could possibly extend the season to mid December.
Goals and Philosophy
Pop Warner Football/Cheerleading is an international program operated for the benefit of its youthful participants. Since 1929, the program's philosophy has been "Academics and Athletics go hand in hand". At every level, Pop Warner seeks to develop well-rounded young men and women who learn not only the fundamentals of football and cheerleading, but also the importance of education, in an atmosphere conducive to developing sound mind, body and character, and having fun along the way.
The general objectives of Pop Warner Football/Cheerleading are to inspire youth to practice the ideals of sportsmanship, scholarship and physical fitness as reflected in the life of the late Glenn Scobey "Pop" Warner. The program stresses learning lessons of value far beyond the playing or cheering days of the boys and girls involved: such as self-discipline, teamwork, concentration, friendship, leadership, and good sportsmanship.
With such goals in mind, and by providing an opportunity to participate in an organized, supervised environment with emphasis on maximum safety and participation. Pop Warner Football/Cheerleading offers young men and women a unique experience.
