Fundraiser - Show Your Skills - Punt, Pass & Kick Competition

Please mark your calendars for this year's first annual fundraiser, "Make the Play", Punt/Pass/Kick contest. Prizes to be presented Thursday, August 18th! (But start collecting donations NOW!!!!) Lincoln Youth Football is hosting a competition highlighting the skills of Punting, Passing & Kicking as our major fundraiser. This is LYF's most important fundraiser of the year! We are really hoping for the support of everyone! The funds raised with this event allow the Lincoln Youth Football players to have a safe, affordable, fun and rewarding experience with our sports program! A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Jackson Hill Foundation. With your help we can do this!!

Competition Overview: This competition creates a lively and engaging forum for boys in the LYF program to compete separately against their peers in punting, passing and kicking skills. For each age division, the top scorer for each skill set in each age category will be presented at the halftime of a Lincoln HS Varsity football game.

Object of the Punting, Passing & Kicking Competition: The competition will take place the first week of football practice at West Sylvan School. Each player will be allowed one punt, one pass and one placekick as part of his participation. Each participant's final score will be his total feet combined from all three events. Prior to the event, players are asked to collect pledges on the enclosed pledge form (additional copies available) from family, friends and neighbors.

Starting Tuesday, June 14

At Equipment Handout at Gear Up Sports, players will receive their Competition Packet. You will also find copies of the forms on the LYF website that you can print out at any time. www.LincolnYouthFootball.info/home. Now you can start collecting pledges!!!!
