Southern Hills Youth Football

2010 Offseason

The 2010 offseason is well underway!
There are a couple big announcements that continue to make Southern Hills Youth Football and the Northeast Ohio Youth Football Conference (NOYFC) the best in youth football.

We welcome Highland Youth Football into the NOYFC starting this season. Highland Youth Football has a similar to philosophy to our mission statement by teaching the fundamentals of youth football and cheerleading, while emphasizing participation, education, safety and fun

The Hornets of Highland Youth Football will compete in the NOYFC by adding approximately 13 tackle teams in all divisions.

Secondly, with the size of the NOYFC, we are introducing a unique division structure for the 2010 season and beyond. There will now be four seperate Tackle Divisions:
BANTAM 7/8 Year Old
U-9
U-10
VARSITY 11/12 Year Old

That means increased playing time, more evenly matched teams as players will be playing opponents close to their own age, more playoff opportunities and more fun for everyone.
We are not aware of any youth football organizations that have such specific divisions. Another benefit of the strength, size and experience of Southern Hills Youth Football and the Northeast Ohio Youth Football Conference.
All divisions should have approximately 16-20 teams.

Finally, a mandatory Coaching/Referee Clinic will be held in late-July for all coaches and referees in the NOYFC. More details to follow.

Make sure you attend and have your voices heard.

 

Thank You For A Great Season!

Strongsville Albion Middle School Scoreboard

Southern Hills Strongsville Youth Football has partnered with Electricians Union Local 38 and the Strongsville City Schools to install a high-tech, LED, wireless remote-controlled scoreboard. The scoreboard will be installed and ready for games for Albion Middle School football teams and Southern Hills Strongsville Youth Football games.

The scoreboard is being donated and installed at no cost to the Strongsville City Schools. Southern Hills Strongsville Youth Football and the Electricians Union Local 38 are covering all costs.

The scoreboard will also be used for other activities at Albion Middle School, including football and track & field.

   

Southern Hills Victory Field at Broadview Heights

With all the construction around the Broadview Heights Community Center, you may wonder what is going on. A few local groups have come together to build a youth football field

Southern Hills Youth Football League and Coach Victor Bierman of Secured Pay LLC are donating the costs of the initial construction, field equipment, goal posts, bleachers, paying for installation of the new sod, and costs for electrical and lighting. Both parties are committed to getting the field completed in time for kickoff of the 2009 football season and plan to help the city maintain and upgrade the field in future years.

The Electricians Union Local 38 is donating a scoreboard. Petros Homes is building the concession stand. The City of Broadview Heights has been instrumental in developing the plan for the field and parking, while making sure all parts of the project run smoothly.

Broadview Heights Victory Field, is opening on week one games, Saturday, September 12th, featuring:
-bleachers on both sides of the field
-high-tech lighting system
-playing surface and practice/warm-up area
-scoreboard
-new NFL style gooseneck goalposts
-additional parking for 100+ vehicles
-concession stand
-irrigation and drainage system

Southern Hills Youth Football League is excited to be able to partner with the City of Broadview Heights and make this concept a reality in less than seven months. Southern Hills Youth Football has saved for years with an idea of building a youth football field. Coach Victor Bierman was key in kick-starting this project with a large donation.

Many people have worked hand-in-hand to make this successful, from Mayor Sam Alai, Broadview Heights City Council, City Engineer Gene Esser, Economic Director Dave Schroedel, Ed Tuma and Frank Perri of the Electrician Union Local 38 and volunteers from the Southern Hills Youth Football League and elsewhere. It has been great working with everyone without conflicts, agendas or egos. The only focus was building an incredible field for the kids.

Coach Bierman says, "I have been a player and a coach for over 15 years and I have always believed that teaching youth through football is a great way to positively influence them both on the field and in everyday life. Hopefully this youth football field project provides all of us an even better opportunity to teach and develop the youth in our local community for many years to come".

Playing fields for youth sports is at a premium, especially in football. The new field and practice area will give youths a quality place to practice and play.

As a completely volunteer, non-profit organization, Southern Hills Youth Football has been determined to help get Victory Field off the ground.
Saturday, September 19th is Homecoming Weekend at Victory Field, featuring youth football games throughout the day and evening, food, prizes, raffles and games for the whole family.

High visibility advertising is available for corporate sponsors. Their names will be featured on the scoreboard, website, the Founder's Plaque, etc.

Please feel free to offer any help or ideas. Contacts for commissioners can be found at our website at www.southernhillsfootball.com.
