Who’s Ready for Certification?!!
Certification is the process in which the league (TYFA) verifies all players to ensure they are the correct age and playing with the correct age groups. It is MANDATORY that all players be in attendance in order to get certified to play in TYFA. In order for a child to participate in TYFA events, they must have a profile in the TYFA web application.
BEFORE CERTIFICATION
It is the Guardian’s responsibility to complete several processes to help prepare their child for TYFA’s certification. Parents, you will receive a verification email from TYFA before our certification day once your child’s info has been uploaded into the TYFA Online Certification System. Once you have received the email you will need to verify the information contained in the email, complete your child’s profile and sign the consent form. If this is not done, your child will not be allowed to play. So please check your email, so that you do not miss the email from the TYFA. If you have not received the email a week before our certification day, please let your head coach or team mom know ASAP. Please read the instructions listed below to help you complete the required processes.
To help mitigate situations that previously required parents, volunteers and TYFA staff to gather in large numbers at the TYFA HQ, TYFA will implement a virtual certification this season utilizing the TYFA Web App and Zoom.
Instead of us having to travel and gather everyone in one location for certification, with Zoom and modifications made to the Web App, TYFA will certify our volunteers and athletes from their home while you will be in yours. You will receive an email a few days before your player’s team is scheduled for Certification with the Zoom Link information.
CERTIFICATION DAY
On the day of certification, we will require the following item:
- The Original State issued Birth Certificate (not the one with the baby feet on it). If you do not have the BC, you can use one of the alternate proof of birth documents listed below.
