Sponsor Of The Week!
It's Wrestling Season! SYFL and SWC cross sponsor each other every year. We share many of the same athletes. Wrestling is a fantastic sport to compliment football and vice versa. The Sycamore Wrestling Club is a true feeder to our school district wrestling program. The club is for kids in Sycamore School District and for ages 5-14 (Middle schoolers can join both the club and the school team). Just below this post will be an attachment of the informational sheet and if you click on the club logo in this post, you will be taken to the clubs facebook page. Check it out!
Football Season Is Here!!!!
SO EXCITING!!!
As most of you know, we are switching to almost all flag football this year. We still have a 6th grade heavyweight tackle team that is combined with GK.
Over 90% of our families are new this year. All except 1 of our 27 flag coaches have never coached SYFL before.
We have our highest registration numbers in at least 10 years.
With flag practice starting on August 3rd, please remember:
- Bring water
- Let the coaches coach
- Bring in your volunteer checks and your raffle ticket checks
- Sign up for your volunteer spot on Sign Up Genius (link below)
- Watch our facebook page in case of bad weather
- Get involved, cheer on your kid and all the others, HAVE FUN!
SYFL is looking for sponsors for the 2021 Season
See the below attached document if you are interested. SYFL relies very heavily on our sponsors as a way to keep our fees low and affordable. In 2020, we lost all of our income, but didn't lose any of our bills. We have some great sponsorship opportunities. See attached document for the various levels of sponsorship we offer as well as an explanation as to how we use those sponsorship monies. Thank you in advance for considering a sponsorship.

Sycamore Junior Spartan Football
Philosophy and General Information
Sycamore Youth Football represents a traveling club football team that is a feeder system into our Sycamore High School. The SYFL builds an age appropriate competitive team that is a member of the Northern Illinois Football Conference. As a feeder program for the Sycamore High School, and under the auspices and direction/tutiledge of Sycamore High School Head Coach, Joe Ryan, the SYFL Jr. Spartans have adopted the Sycamore High School playbook. Our coaches all undergo a National Center for Safety Institute background check, USA footbal "Heads Up Play" coaching certification, and a year round coaching program designed to highlight both the Sycamore High School football philosophy and appropriately train our coaches in practice and game management as well as player development. Our coaches have experience ranging from new coaches to coaches with upward of 16 years experience.
Lastly, we are a volunteer organization that depends on family support. We encourage each family to become involved with their child and Sycamore Youth Football and Cheer. Whether it be through coaching, cheering, chain gang, working concession or helping with the board, the boosters or a variety of events, we want to welcome you to the Sycamore Jr. Spartan family.
