As we move forward into our 16th season, the Motherlode Valley Football League continues to evolve, learning from past experiences while preparing for the future. The league is governed by its Constitution and Rules & Regulations for both Football and Cheer.

The MVFL Board is composed of elected Organizational League Representatives who serve as the liaison between their organizations and the league. Each League Representative holds one voting right on all matters brought before the Board, while the Executive Officers provide oversight to ensure proper procedures are followed. Understanding how decisions are made helps clarify that the MVFL is a league governed collectively by its organizations. League Representatives dedicate countless hours beyond their own organizational responsibilities in service to the league and its athletes.

Without question, the primary focus of the MVFL has always been, and will always remain, the student-athletes. This season, the MVFL is proud to field six Motherlode teams and six Valley teams. We look forward to reconnecting with longtime friends and welcoming new ones. Regardless of outcomes or final scores, we emphasize respect—shaking hands, displaying sportsmanship, and recognizing that this opportunity is bigger than any one individual or organization.

Through Football and Cheer, the MVFL remains committed to fostering character, integrity, responsibility, respect, sportsmanship, toughness, and teamwork in every athlete we serve, as well as in every adult who attends our events. We must always pride ourselves on accountability and lead by example, even when they aren’t watching.

As we prepare our athletes for the transition to high school, the MVFL remains open to new organizations interested in joining our league. Organizations aligned as true feeder programs, with the best interests of their athletes and future high schools in mind, are encouraged to reach out for more information at Motherlodefootball2@gmail.com.

We look forward to an exciting, competitive, and memorable season.
