New England All American Youth Football Games

Welcome to the 2026 All-American Youth Games

Welcome to the official information hub for the leaders and supporters of the New England All-American Youth Football Games. Our mission is to recognize elite talent while prioritizing academic excellence. This event is built on the "Students First" philosophy, ensuring that every athlete is celebrated as much for their report card as their performance on the field.

The New England All-American Youth Football Games is a premier regional showcase held annually over Memorial Day Weekend in Lynn, MA. We bring together the top 9U, 11U, and 13U student-athletes from across New England to compete at the highest level. Unlike traditional tournaments, our platform is defined by two non-negotiable pillars:

  • Academic Excellence: Every participant must maintain a 2.5+ GPA to take the field.
  • Elite Competition: We utilize a "One-Way" rule to ensure player safety and maximize the showcase of specialized talent on both sides of the ball.
