The Blue Ridge Youth Association (BRYA) mission is to provide a structured environment for kids to learn about the game of football while building lasting character through commitment, discipline, teamwork, sportsmanship and a sense of community.

Our teams participate in the Greenville County Recreation League with teams in the Termite, Pee-Wee and Midget divisions. Normally BRYA has 2 teams in each division with approximately 23 children per team. Our games and practices are held at fields within our community and Greenville County. All BRYA head coaches have had background checks and are certified to coach football with Greenville County.

BRYA strives to have all kids who are interested in playing football participate. With that goal in mind participation costs are kept to a minimum. During the year BRYA will run several fundraising events culminating in October with our annual Homecoming Saturday. All proceeds from these events are used to defer participation costs.

BRYA is a 501(c) (3) organization and is registered with the State of South Carolina. BRYA files an annual tax return (from 990) which is available for public inspection. A copy can obtained through a written request. All donations are tax deductable.
