IMPORTANT DATES

 Regitration Dates :February 11th, 18th and 25th .2012

This year we will be putting in place a few changes that we hope will enhance the experience for all parties . First we have brought on several new volunteers , I would like to take this opportunity to welcome Ed Telenko who will be our In House Photographer . As well  as providing great shots of games and NRMFA  activities Ed will screen other parents who will be allowed to venture to the player side of the field to take action shots from the players perspective .  Only those who have been vetted by Ed and are wearing NRMFA credentials will be allowed on the player side of the field , all other fans must refrain from interacting with the players and coaches during the game . Our next new volunteer is Andrea Szyjka , Andrea is our Fundraising Coordinator her goal will be to bring exciting new ventures for NRMFA that will assist the league in building up our funds for new equipment as well as providing extra monies for those who find it a challenge to enlist their children in sports activities . Another new face at the table will be Nicole Crawford , Nicole has accepted the role of Communications Coordinator. Her function will be to interact with the print, digital and visual media. We hope the result will be that NRMFA will obtain some positive media attention which in turn will help the league grow  Moving forward with a big new group is the 4 new volunteers from St Catharine’s these gentlemen have been part of NRMFA for some time now as coaches and have decided to step up and take on more responsibility for the league as a whole , well done gentlemen, the individuals (Glenn Neilson , John Passero ,Marcus Stake and Doug Fusek) will be a great asset to NRMFA.Last and I can assure you not least is Dino Collini , Dino is our new Niagara Falls Director . A Directors role is to make sure his city centre works like a well oiled machine  , Directors have their hands full all season long . I’m sure you join me and the rest of the executive in welcoming these volunteers and wishing them good luck during the upcoming season. 

 The biggest change this year will take place away from the field and several weeks prior to the season beginning. We will be requiring ALL Coaches regardless of how long they have been with NRMFA to attend a MANTITORY coaches clinic . Failure to attend will result in not being allowed to coach in our league . We feel that certain standards are necessary to provide a positive football experience for all our players , parents and fans .

Despite bringing on many new faces this year we are still short a  Web site coordinator  , this individual would work with our Smithville Director in maintaining our Facebook, Twitter and  Web site functions . Intrested individuals may contact me ( John Fisher )thru our Gmail account

 I want to thank you for your time and remind you to check our site for upcoming information regarding registrations .
