Hamburg Pirate Youth Football Association (HPYFA) is a 100% volunteer organization. We’re all out here for the kids. HPYFA is an organization designed to build good citizens. The HPYFA relies on a devoted legion of adult volunteers to help ensure that the organization remains structured and runs smoothly.
Many responsibilities exist beyond the normal team level commitments that make the HPYFA function. Families are what make the program a quality experience for all our children. HPYFA can only be as good as we, the families, make it. Following are some important volunteer areas that are required during the season:
• Game Day Field and Facility help  o Ticket Booth, Chains, Time keeper, spotter, etc.• Game Day Concessions• Practice Days Concessions• Volunteer Manager• Red and Black Team commissioners• Concessions Manager• Equipment Management• Team Manager
HPYFA fees is a revenue stream that covers a variety of things including player equipment , game fields, practice fields,  referees, training programs, insurance, and countless other things to keep the league running.  The costs of all of these items continue to increase every year.
An additional revenue stream is home games.  Each home game provides revenue that allows us to continue to provide an outstanding Cheer, Pom, and Football experience for all of our participants.  For example, 1 day of home game concessions can generate up to $1000 in net revenue used to offset operating cost.
Below are upcoming costs we are planning on a go-forward basis:1. Cheer/Pom Uniforms2. Football Game Uniforms3. Helmet Replacement (Helmets are reconditioned by the manufacturer every other year.  They are good for 10 years if the reconditioning is kept up.  Our helmets are starting year 5.  We will need to replace them outright in 5 years)4. Shoulder Pads5. Practice Pants
Again, the HPYFA is a 100% volunteer organization.  All families participating in the Association will need to volunteer to make 2014 and the future successful.  As a reminder, Coaches, Assistant Coaches, and Board Members have the same volunteer requirements as any other family participating in the association.
If you are interested in volunteering more time to the program than the minimum volunteering requirement, please contact us volunteers@piratesfootball .com.  We are actively looking for volunteers.
