Out-of-District Waivers
North Cascade Youth Football League does not allow for out-of-district waivers. Players must attend a Stanwood-Camano School District school or reside within the boundaries of the Stanwood-Camano School District. Exceptions are only made when a neighboring Youth Football program is unable to field a team in the division a player falls within based on birth date. 

Division Structure

Age will be determined based on the age of the player as of June 1st of each year. The system will automatically assign your team; if this results in a team change vs. the prior season, please reach out to us at [email protected] after registration and request your player “Play Up”.

North Cascade Youth Football League has weight based guidelines for play to reduce safety risks. Any player exceeding the weight listed for their division will be considered an "X-Man/Men". X-Men will be required to have an X displayed on their helmet (placed by the NCYFL) and is required to play 'inside the tackles" (offense or defensive line). X-Men are also prohibited from kick-off or kick-return teams.

Weight limitations by division are as follows:

Players will be weighed just prior to the first game of the season/or Jamboree. Players who are not X-Men, but appear close to weight maximums may be requested to be weighed by the opposing coach prior to any game.

If your child is required to move a division up or down, unexpectedly, based on the new age cut off of June 1st, please complete registration in the system-assigned division please Contact Us and we can work on the best solution for your child, including potentially applying for a waiver with North Cascade Youth Football League. Please note there is no guarantee we will be able to waiver your player to another division.
