Preseason and Camps
Last year WYSI hosted a Summer Football Camp in June for 5-6th grade only.
Westfield High School also hosted a Football Camp in July. That camp is not hosted by WYSI. All questions should be directed to Coach Miracle and his WHS Staff.
More information on each camp will be available this summer.
Evaluations and Team Formation
Evaluations took place on July 24th last year at the Westfield High School MPIF (Grades 3-6). We will post the 2026 date and times to this page once the details are finalized.
First and Second Grade held evaluations at Westfield Middle School.
A draft will take place after evaluations in an effort to create fair teams. Last year the draft was held July 25-26.
Evaluation Info
Our evaluation dates are spent collecting player metrics and observing skills so that we can “score” a player. We do this to establish a baseline score when drafting each team for the in-house league, as well as identifying those players that belong on the travel team at the 5/6 level.
Install Dates
Install dates are a collective effort to install Westfield’s base offensive and defensive plays, alignments, and assignments with the entire division participating as one.
