I want to welcome all of you to the 2008 edition of Port Orange Pop Warner football and cheerleading.

Today, over 300 boys and girls began practice in anticipation of a very successful season. The POYFA Board of Directors and coaching staffs have been preparing for this day since January. A lot of hard work has already taken place in preparation for this day.

For those of you who are new to POYFA, and to others that may not know, POYFA is a 100% volunteer program. No one is paid for the work that they do. We have fundraisers all year long in an effort to keep registrations fees as reasonable as possible. Merchandise is just one of those fundraising opportunities. If you have not gotten your Port Orange Hawk merchandise, stop by and see Lisa Eckels at our merchandise table and do your part to support POYFA.

I wish everyone and every team all the best for 2008. If you ever have any concerns, questions, or just want to more know about POYFA and how you can be more involved, please do not hesitate to contact me or just see me at the field.

Go Hawks!

Kerry Leuzinger
