SAFETY FIRST:

HCYFL Commissioners know that safety comes first — both for the players on the field and their parents on the sidelines. Having a Heads Up Football program in place, with teams led by USA Football certified coaches, goes a long way toward showing that youth football is being taught the right way and that parents feel confident about your league.

Heads Up Football is the safer way to practice and play. USA Football has worked with leaders in both medicine and sport across the country to create a full-featured program that any league or school can use to address key safety issues — and ensure that every coach understands and knows how to implement each component of the program.

Injury Prevention & Control: Concussions:

A concussion is a type of traumatic brain injury, or TBI, caused by a bump, blow, or jolt to the head that can change the way your brain normally works. Concussions can also occur from a fall or a blow to the body that causes the head and brain to move quickly back and forth.

Health care professionals may describe a concussion as a “mild” brain injury because concussions are usually not life-threatening. Even so, their effects can be serious.

Lago Vista Youth Football and Cheer is ran entirely by dedicated and hard working volunteers. Lago Vista Youth Football and Cheer is always we’re looking for great Coaches, team staff positions and Board members. Game Day Volunteeers are required at all home games; positions range from down markers, work the chains and sometimes running the clock.

* Any offense or conviction against a child
* Any felony or drug conviction within the past five (5) years.

A Head Coach is selected for each team. Once selected, the board will meet with the Head Coach to consider applications for Assistant Coach position(s). All coaches must be certified by a board mandated certification program and are required to attend certification courses authorized by HCYFL.

Note: The coach is responsible for the fee that is incurred for taking the certification course.

Any coach can be suspended from the league by the Board of Directors based on the following:
* Confirmed physical or verbal abuse to any player, cheerleader, coach, parent, official, spectator, etc. In these instances, the coach or assistant will be removed from the team and will not be allowed to participate in the program for two (2) consecutive years.
* If during the season a coach or assistant coach commits a crime against a child or is convicted of a felony or drug offense, he or she will be dismissed.
