LJFL is a premiere junior football and cheer program in the valley.  With over 200 athletes, our goal is to foster a welcoming and inclusive program that encourages all participants.

Welcome to the 2025 season of Livermore Bulls Youth Football!

Your 2025 board is excited to embark on another incredible year of growth, teamwork, and competition. Our league thrives because of the dedication of our players, families, and volunteers, and we look forward to working alongside all of you to make this season our best yet.

As we gear up for the season, here are a few key reminders and updates:

1. Annual Physicals: A valid physical form, signed and dated in 2025, is required for all players. Please plan accordingly to ensure this is completed before the season begins.

2. NSID Verification: We will continue to use the NSID system. Returning players do not need to go through the verification process again but must submit their updated physical form and sign the league agreement. Links will be sent out after registration is completed. Once you get that link, please be sure to sign in and make sure your player is still “green”. Your verification (aka payment)  is good for 365 days. Make sure not to let that lapse or you may have to go through the age verification process again. 

3. Uniform Distribution for Football: We are implementing a new uniform distribution process this year. Instead of purchasing uniforms, they will now be loaned out, just like other equipment. This change ensures consistency and affordability for all families.

4. Technology Upgrades: We are excited to roll out  a league-wide app, run by sports engine,  that will be linked to our website. This will enhance communication and streamline updates. Additionally, we have a new web-based volunteer tracking program, making it easier for families to monitor and manage their required volunteer hours.

5. EBYFC Commission Changes: The East Bay Youth Football & Cheer (EBYFC) has restructured to create a more balanced playing field. We will now compete exclusively against teams that are comparable in size and skill level. Furthermore, the team structure has been modified, eliminating the novice level and ensuring all teams play under the same set of rules. Due to these changes, football is instituting a waitlist after 50 players per age group.  This is to ensure that we have the ability to field full teams and meet roster requirements.  

Key Season Dates (so far):

• May 4th – Cheer Mandatory Fitting Day

• July 14th – Football Practice Begins

• July 29th – Cheer Practice Begins

• August 9th & 10th – Cheer Camp

• August 16th – Jamboree Weekend

We are excited for all the opportunities that lie ahead this season and appreciate your continued support in making the Livermore Bulls a great place for our young athletes to learn, grow, and succeed. If you have any questions or need further information, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Let’s make 2025 an unforgettable season!

 Coaches Corner 

Football and Cheer are very demanding and physical endeavors. It takes a lot of courage, commitment, and dedication to put themselves in uncomfortable situations and physically challenging themselves every day. Our kids are proactively choosing something that requires so much of themselves.

Thank you for allowing your kids to test themselves. To grow and face adversity and figure things out about themselves. To build a relationship with pain and discomfort. These are the gifts of the sport that go well beyond playing a game or performing stunts. These are the gifts we want them to take on in their lives to be better people.

Keep Hydrated 

• Encourage them to drink water throughout the day.
• Offer water-rich fruits and vegetables.
• Watch your intake of sports drinks with high sugar.
• Listen to your body: if you're thirsty, you are already dehydrated
• Bring more water than you think to practice.

Proper Nutrition

• Balance diet of rich fruits, vegetables whole grains and lean proteins.
• Opt for easy digestible snacks like peanut butter, nuts and yogurt.
• Avoid heavy greasy foods that can cause stomach upset. 
• Aim for snacks 1 hour before practice.
