Frequently Asked Questions

Can both of my sons play on the same team?

That may be more likely at the lower grades (1-4) because team boundaries are more defined by school boundaries. However, even in the lower grades team makeup decisions are made between coaches will based on team need.  In the older grades (5-8) team selection is solely based on the draft.  It is up to the coaches whom they choose for their team based on each teams’ needs.

When does the season begin?

While specific dates will vary from year to year LYF and the UYFL try to mirror the Utah High School football season as much as possible. Try outs (if applicable) will begin the week following the 24th of July Holiday. Practices can begin after tryouts, often the first week of August. The first games usually start the second week of August. The Jamboree will be the weekend before the first games.
