Hear From Some Of Our Commissioners

"Being able to give back to my hometown is an amazing experience. Paso Robles formed me into the person that I am, both on the field and off. I am excited to provide year round, fundamental youth football back to our community. I am very grateful and blessed to have an opportunity to start this organization for the youth and young adults in the community that shaped me into the person I am today."

"Using sport as a catalyst to impact the lives of the youth in my community is a great opportunity. For me to partner with NYFO, we can double or triple our reach by providing a safe and competitive environment for these kids to learn the skills and fundamentals of the game. The great game of football has been a very positive teacher in my life, I look to share all the knowledge and wisdom I have learned with all the kids involved in NYFO.”
