About
Yellowstone Fire Soccer Association (YFSA) is a competitive youth soccer club for boys and girls in Cody, Wyoming. The nonprofit organization runs year-round programming so northwest Wyoming families can move beyond casual recreation into league play, regional tournaments, and structured skill development. YFSA is affiliated with US Youth Soccer and Wyoming Youth Soccer, and every coach and board role is filled by volunteers.
Programs and seasons
Spring is the busiest stretch: teams train several times each week and usually play at least one league match or tournament weekly from early March through late May. YFSA hosts the Cody Shootout at home each spring while also traveling for league and tournament play across the region, including the Wyoming State Cup in Casper in late May. Fall competitive teams train and enter a couple of regional events from August through late October. During the winter off-season, Winter Academy gives players extra touches and coached sessions focused on ball control rather than competition.
Age groups and player development
The club welcomes boys and girls from about age 7 through eighth grade, with teams organized in standard youth age bands such as U8 through U15 and older groups when numbers allow. YFSA emphasizes technical skill before heavy tactical coaching—footwork, passing, and settling the ball in a supportive environment where players can apply what they learn in spring competition. Programs adjust slightly by season depending on registration numbers.
Registration, fees, and financial help
Spring 2026 club registration runs $200 for U8 and $250 for U10 through U15 through GotSoccer, with a three-month payment plan that starts on the registration date or full payment upfront. First-time U8 players born in 2018–2019 who have never played with the club may qualify for waived spring registration fees but still pay about $35 for insurance plus roughly $100 for a uniform kit. Winter Academy costs $75 plus a $38 Wyoming Soccer Association competitive registration fee for the 2025–26 season. YFSA offers full and partial scholarships on a limited basis; families should contact the registrar to ask about aid or the scholarship form.
What families complete at signup
Each player registers online through GotSoccer, uploads a current headshot for Wyoming player cards, and provides birth-date proof sent to the registrar by email or mailed to P.O. Box 552, Cody, WY 82414. Returning families who registered in Fall 2020 or later reuse existing logins; new families create an account and leave jersey numbers blank until assigned after registration closes. Uniform replacement orders go out after registration closes. Parents either opt in to four volunteer hours per registered player (eight hours maximum per family) or pay a $60 opt-out fee per child ($120 maximum) to support tournament operations.
Tournaments and travel
Selected 2026 spring events include the Cody Shootout April 18–19, Riverton Rampage April 25–26, Billings Magic City Classic, Sheridan Bighorn Mountain Cup, Scheels 406 Cup June 6–7, and Wyoming State Cup in Casper. Travel expectations rise with competitive level as teams join league schedules and out-of-town weekends across Montana and Wyoming.
Winter Academy details
Winter Academy typically runs January through February at the YFSA indoor training facility at Outlook Gym, 4 South Fork Road adjacent to the Hampton Inn in Cody. Sessions are grouped coed by age—U8, U10, U12, U14, and U15+—with evening time blocks on rotating Monday/Wednesday or Tuesday/Thursday weeks and scheduled off weeks. Registration is online only through GotSoccer using the player account login.
