President - George Scheld

George Scheld is a current candidate for the Youth Coaches Hall of Fame. He has been involved in many youth programs in varying capacities form coach, administrator to board of directors member. Although football has long been a passion, he has also been actively involved in basketball, lacrosse and baseball programs. Mr. Scheld is currently the Varsity pitching coach at Chaminade High School in Mineola, N.Y. and was formerly a coach at St. Anthony's High School in South Huntington. He received a full scholarship to play baseball at a premier Florida powerhouse Eckerd College until a devastating injury forced his return to New York. After doctors advised he would not be able to play competitive sports again, George refused to succomb and starting throwing again resulting in a call from St. Johns University coach Joe Russo to finish his college career there. He did just that, playing on a team ranked number one in the nation in division 1, with major league greats John Franco and Frank Viola.

Mr. Scheld owns a successful private investigations business and is currently authoring a novel on the problems with politics in youth sports. His coaching philosophy has long been simple. "Be prepared and Be Honest" He lives by the creed of his mentor, legendary college baseball coach from The University of Miami, Ron Frazier.

I view everyone I meet, whether it be a player, ref, opposing coach, parent or administrator, as if I was going to enter a life long relationship with them even if I will never see them again. This keeps me focused and true and never lets me deviate from my stead fast philosophy, It is always about the kids.


Our Philosophy

Our philosophy can be summed up in four words: "IT'S ABOUT THE CHILDREN." Although we are excited about the recent media exposure, and commitments from major organizations such as the NFL to get involved in the league, we will never waiver in our commitment to keep this league fun for the children. If we're keeping smiles on the faces of our children, while having them still maintain their competitive spirits, we have done a great job.

The participating Coaches will be educated to conform to this philosophy, or they will not be part of the program. Although we are all competitors, it is imperative that these youngsters learn that it is less about wins and losses, and more about learning to live with wins and losses. Our children must learn that defeat is not a measure of failure, but is a part of life.
