The SYFA has made the difficult decision to furlough a number of staff. We will be utilising the Government Job Retention Scheme, in order to protect the association financially and ensure we’re fully resourced when football activities recommence.
In light of this, please see below updated contact details below:
The committee of the seryfa would like to pass on our thoughts and prayers for everyone at this desperate time. We hope everyone is well and managing to cope at these difficult times for everyone. All we ask is that everyone takes care and listen to all the advice and information given out by the Government.
Please abide with the rules that have been set out for everyone and also use social media to keep in touch with your players and team mates. It's a difficult time for everyone and hopefully we will all recover from this and get back playing football when it's safe to do so.

In light of yesterday’s updated advice from the UK government regarding working from home where possible, the SYFA office will close at 17:00 today until further notice. We do not take this step lightly, but must act in the best interests of the general public and emergency services and with the health and safety of our staff and volunteers in mind.
Good Morning

We are still receiving some enquiries regarding teams hoping to travel to festivals and tournaments outwith Scotland. The likelihood is that this matter will be taken out of their hands entirely, as most large scale events and gatherings across Europe are being cancelled or postponed, along with flights.
