The Zephyr Youth Football Association was formed to provide a foundation of fun and skill development for Mahtomedi area youth. The ZYFA was founded by community parents who wanted to provide their sons and daughters with the best possible experience in learning the game of football. The mission of the ZYFA is to nurture teamwork, build confidence and instill a love of the game.

The ZYFA is a non-profit, volunteer organization whose main objective is to expose youth student athletes to the most positive, safe and fun athletic environment possible. Participants in the ZYFA must be girls or boys in grades K-8 who live or attend public or private school within the geographic boundary of the Mahtomedi School District/ISD 832. Scholarships are available for any student athlete who cannot provide the registration fee.

2025 Registration will open May 1st!
