Thank you for the opportunity to play in your 2007 tournament. Our entire football family found the experience to be nothing less than fantastic. The football facilities were first class, the competition was stiff and very evenly matched within our age group, the officiating (with 4 referees) was the best and most consistent that we have experienced this year, and the hotel/vacation experience was a perfect end to our season. Sadly, our team will now disband and graduate to middle school. The better athletes will transition into our local school-sponsored football program, but for others, the AIYFC tournament may have been their last football game experience. A significant core of our team has been playing together for five and six years, and we could not have picked a better venue for their final youth football competition. I am very impressed with the quality of the tournament that you are developing and wish you the best of luck and growth in the future. The AIYFC Tournament has been a first-rate experience for all of my kids and their parents. I will recommend your tournament highly to all of the coaches that I come across here in the Cincinnati metro area. Thank you for organizing a fantastic event for our kids. You have my permission to give out my personal phone numbers or my email address at any time to coaches/teams that are considering attendance at this event in the future, and I will be happy to relay our positive team experience.

Ken and Ernest, I would like to thank you for the opportunity you have afforded us to participate in your tournament. We have come to Florida (Tampa area) for the last five years and totally enjoyed ourselves. This goes not only for my coaching staff but for the players also. Before entering this tournament, we participated in another tournament that was not nearly as organized as this. The lack of organization that we were confronted with caused us to seek another venue and we were lucky enough to find out about the upstart American Invitational Youth Football Championships. The year was 2004 and we applied for a spot. After an interview process that confirmed character and commitment we were accepted into the tournament. I truly enjoyed this because I realized that not only myself and my team were being interviewed but also every other team. This assured that only the finest of the finest would be offered an opportunity to play in the tournament and this has continued for the years we have participated already. I know it will continue for years to come. For this I tip my hat to Ken and Ernest as the tournament organizers. Let me further state that we as KAT Football, make our experience a week long event. We have had excellent accommodations for our team and the directors work with us to offer various options for entertainment during our stay in Florida. We have toured the Tampa Bay Bucs stadium, gone to Disney, Universal Studios, and Busch Gardens as a few of our team activities while in Florida for the tournament. Though it may sound like it is all fun and no football, this could not be further from the truth. We practice everyday we are there at a facility that is set aside for us by the directors. In closing please understand that the facilities where the games are played are top notch. The fields are well maintained, the officiating fair, and the presentation of the tournament outstanding. The KAT Board of Directors and myself as Head Coach of the KAT Bulldogs would like to thank you for accepting us into your tournament 5 years ago. Not only have you invited us back every year to play, but you have made us feel as though we are part of your FAMILY. Thank you. Glenn C. Meyers
