Frequently Asked Registration Questions

Is it too late to register for cheerleading and football?

We are still accepting registrations for cheerleading. Registration for football is closed. 

Are the rosters full?
Please do not call asking if a roster is full. Rosters are fluid. We receive registrations on a daily basis. We also learn of players/cheerleaders that have decided not to participate. If your age group is full, we will place you on a waiting list and notify you of your status.
 
Do I get to choose which team my child will be part of?
No. LMYFA's policy is that as many children as possible should be allowed to participate. This sometimes means that participants have to moved up or down a level to make this possible. Rosters are not final until sometime in August. While we would like to honor all requests, it is not always possible.
 
Can I choose the Pop Warner association where I want to participate?
No. You can not choose Lake Mary, Sanford, Lyman, Lake Brantley etc. Each association has a well defined zone from which we may accept players/cheerleaders. The zones are loosely based on high school zoning. Just because you have  Lake Mary address does not mean you are zoned for Lake Mary. Please consult the LMYFA zone to see if you are eligible to register with LMYFA.
 
I tried to register with another association and they say their rosters are full. Can I register with LMYFA?
In this situation, you need to contact your zoned association and have them explain the options for you to participate elsewhere. They can provide information, guidance and necessary paperwork. Out of zone players will not be considered until the releasing organization has signed off on the participant.
 
My child had a physical late in 2007. Can I use this for LMYFA?
The National Pop Warner  organization is very specific in regards to physicals. The physical for the 2008 season must be done in 2008. Anything before January 1, 2008 will not be accepted. The physical must also be on the Pop Warner physical form found on our registration page.
 
I have a physical on a State of Florida physical form. Can I use this?
No. Pop Warner mandates that all physicals must be documented on the 2008 Pop Warner form.
