Panhandle Youth Football Association
The Panhandle Youth Football Association better known as the PYFA was established in 1980 led by former Florida Gator Cornell Tinner.
For over 30 years, the football and cheerleading program of the PYFA has grown from just 4 local teams of Walton, Niceville, Shalimar, and Destin to over 50+ teams from Ages 5 to 12 in four different divisions of tackle football and cheer.
As of 2019, the PYFA consists of Panama City Beach, DeFuniak Springs (Walton), Jackson County, Shalimar, Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Freeport, Holmes County, Vernon, Niceville, Crestview, Lynn Haven, and South Walton County.
The PYFA has two Divisions: the Northern Panhandle Alliance and the Southern Panhandle Alliance. Each Division is made up of six to eight teams. The top four teams from each Division make the Playoffs.
Every program in the PYFA strives to provide the highest level of competition, coaches, players, and facilities while also furnishing the developmental instruction for all athletes in football and cheer.
