The National Capital Amateur Football Association (NCAFA) has been a cornerstone of amateur football in the Ottawa region since 1955. Originally established with just four teams playing tackle football in the fall, NCAFA has grown into a vibrant league comprising 14 clubs. Today, it offers structured football programs for youth ranging from Under-10 (U10) to Under-18* (U18*), supporting both skill development and competitive play.

Myers Riders Football Club proudly fields teams across all age divisions, from U10 to U18*. The club is dedicated to fostering athletic excellence, teamwork, and sportsmanship in a safe and supportive environment. Players are introduced to the fundamentals of tackle football and progressively develop advanced skills as they move through each age level.

The NCAFA season takes place each fall, running from mid-August through early November. Teams compete in eight regular season games, followed by up to three playoff rounds for those who qualify, culminating in the league championship.

Before registering, families are encouraged to verify which club territory they fall under by visiting the official NCAFA website. Each club serves a specific geographic area to ensure balanced competition and strong community representation.
