Long Valley Raiders Football Association 2025 Head Football Coach Questionnaire

LVRFA is in the process of selecting coaches for the 2025 football season. We would like to thank you for volunteering to work with the children in our football program. Without volunteers like you, our program, and the children who look forward to playing, would not have the success that we have shared in past years.  We are asking all potential head coaches/level coordinators to fill out this coaching questionnaire.  Responses will be used in selecting the coaches for the upcoming season.

The objective of the LVRFA shall be to provide recreation for the youth of the Township of Washington in the form of tackle football and other competitive activities, and to teach the fundamentals of good sportsmanship, teamwork, discipline, and the benefits of good physical and mental conditioning. Coaches are expected to lead by example and adhere to the Coaches Code of Conduct in the LVRFA By-Laws and the MCYFL By-Laws.

All Coaches will need to complete/renew a USA Football Certification and criminal background check (good for 2 years). Information will be provided by the LVRFA Board.
