Breast Cancer Awareness Month

[MoFo]

Teams don't forget October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Strike Force Sports in Lumberton was very helpful for my team last year for Breast Cancer Awareness Socks for our team...Just a suggestion.

I had no idea boys would be that interested in wearing pink. I love it. After last year we had to place some restrictions to what players could do to the association issued equipment. Several helmets were permanently marked with pink.

Several of our past and present player's families have been affected by breast cancer so we go out of our way to show support.

Last year we had a player that had stikers he wore on his helmet with names of family members he wanted to remember.

I think as a coach you have to take every oppurtunity to not only mold athletes, but also character. Show the kids that standing up for something is a good thing.

You betcha.
Like my old coach use to say winning is not everything... but it is the most important thing.
Or play for the fun of it but only winning is fun. Just kidding I hope all kids get more out of playing football then X's and O's.  As a parent and coach I hope to show that.

2011 NYFA PINK OUT IS APPROACHING!!
ALL MONEY FOR SPONSORSHIPS AND T-SHIRTS IS DUE TO YOUR TEAM MOM NO LATER THAN MONDAY SEPTEMBER 26!!

Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, our Junior Bulldogs will be hosting our 2nd Annual Pink Out game day at our game fields for all of our home games on Saturday October 8, 2011.

The Pink Out was a great success last year and our teams will battle it out again to see who can raise the most money for the Susan G. Komen Foundation by gathering Pink Out sponsorships that will be listed on the back of our official Pink... Out t-shirts! T-shirt orders and sponsorships will be taken from Monday September 19 to Monday September 26! The team that collects the most donations for sponsorships will be given $200.00 toward their end of season party by the NYFA Board!!

100% of the proceeds for sponsorships will be directly donated to the Susan G. Komen For the Cure Foundation on behalf of NYFA! T-shirts are $15.00 each (add 1.00 for each X over 2X) and sponsorships are $20.00 each. Sponsorships can be your name, your business name, or you may honor a loved one who has battled, survived, or lost their fight for breast cancer. T-shirt artwork will be posted in the next few days!

Our goal is to donate $1,000.00 on behalf of our Junior Bulldogs in an effort to help support breast cancer research! We encourage all players, coaches and fans to participate by bringing their pink! Pink clothing, pink accessories, and pink creativity are encouraged by the Board, and all participants and their families can place their vote for the best Pink Out team by paying $1.00 per vote (which will also be donated) at the game fields October 8. The team that wins the most votes this day will be given $100.00 from the NYFA Board toward their end of season party. All teams are eligible to win both contests!!

Let's come together as a community and raise money for this wonderful cause!! All participants last year had a blast and raised a lot of money and this year we are looking for it to be bigger and better!! Even if you are unable to attend, please share our event with all of your friends!!

Detect, Fight, WIN!!!
