Welcome to the AMA Football Website. Our football program has been fielding teams for over thirty years. AMA Football and Cheer teams consist of boys and girls in the area of the Hwy. 4 corridor from Copperopolis, Angels Camp, Murphys and Arnold areas. Boys and girls from the ages of 9 to 14 are eligible to play. Our Football and Cheer Staff are run by an all volunteer group who emphasize sportsmanship, team play, safety and respect for others. AMA Football generally practices three days a week from 5:00 pm to 7:00 pm at Copello Park, Angels Camp. Our season begins about the first week of August and runs through the middle of November. We hope to instill fundamentals as well as skill in a fun and motivating atmosphere for the kids.

COST OF PROGRAM:

  • $ 100.00      Registration Fee
  • $   50.00      Volunteer Fee (Mandatory 5 hours of volunteering)
  • $   25.00      Sponsor
  • $ 175.00      Total

 MANDATORY DEPOSIT OF $50.00 IS DUE AT SIGN UPS

  • Registration Fee:  This fee covers the cost of insurance and gear.  Football gear consists of bag, helmet, game and practice jerseys, game and practice pants, all pads, mouth pieces, socks, belt, t-shirt and misc. gear. 
  • Volunteer Fee:  As most of you know, AMA Football is 100% run by volunteers.  Unfortunately, much of the responsibility of running this program and teaching our kids falls on a small group of people.  While we all enjoy our contribution to our community, we are limited in the amount of time we can spend on creating the best football experience for our children.  As a Club, we are always looking for ways to improve and enrich your family’s experience, but we cannot do that without the help of our volunteers.  Therefore, it will be MANDATORY to volunteer at least 5 HOURS of your time throughout the season.  AMA will keep track of your hours on a sign in sheet and refund your $50.00 at the end of the season when your hours are tallied.  Should you have more than one child involved in this program, only one volunteer fee is applicable.
  • Sponsor Fee:  AMA especially depends on our football program sponsorships to help offset the ever-increasing costs of football gear and equipment, insurance, referee fees, etc.  If we could get one $25.00 sponsor in addition to each player registration fee, our program would be able to secure a better financial position for a successful season.
  • Promissory NoteIf you are unable to pay the above amount in full, please fill out a Promissory Note Application and establish your payment arrangements.  Turn this in with application and the initial deposit. 

Should you have any questions or require additional information, please give me a call.
