Platte Ridge Park Update:
PCYFL has our families and those visiting our fields in mind when planning for the future. We continue to make improvements to Platte Ridge Park, and have recently been awarded two grants by the county. These grants will help us provide the following to the league:
1 set of bleachers for the field that currently has a Goal Post.
2 Goal Post Sets for the two remaining fields that currently don’t have them.
These updates will be taking place over the summer and should be ready for use during the 2021 season.
Fundraisers:
Each year PCYFL families are required to participate in our trash bag fundraiser. This fundraiser has allowed us to keep our players in the latest and safest equipment. There is a buy-out option; more information will be sent out by your coach or team parent.
New this year – if you decide to not participate in the fundraiser, we will be cashing your equipment deposit at the end of the season.
We will also be doing an additional fundraiser to help raise funds for those field improvements mentioned above. More details will be communicated out in the month of July.
