FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 

Who is eligible to register for Football?

Our association is part of Hill County Youth Football League (HCYFL) and governed by the rules set forth by them.  As such, we welcome all students in 1st - 6th grade that reside within the boundary of Pieper High Schools feeder, to include students who attend private school, homeschool etc.  HCYFL is a grade first league that promotes loyalty to its school districts, so you MUST PROVIDE PROOF that you reside within Pieper High Schools feeder. The schools that are within our boundary are Indian Springs, Kinder Ranch, Specht, Timberwood Park Elementaries and Pieper Ranch Middle School.

No. Our program is designed to teach athletes the fundamentals of UIL football to help them become successful athletes at the middle and high school levels.
