Fairlawn Cardinals Youth Football is a non-profit, youth football and cheerleading organization established to promote the wholesome development of youth through their association with adult leaders in the sports of football and cheerleading. The Fairlawn Cardinals have been serving the youth of Pawtucket and the surrounding communities since 1955. The Fairlawn Cardinals are a proud member of The Blackstone Valley Youth Football & Cheerleading Conference. The Blackstone Valley Conference is part of the nationally accredited and NFL partner, American Youth Football & Cheer. AYF is the largest youth football and cheer organization in the country. We are currently the only team in Pawtucket/Providence that is a member of AYF and our competitive teams have the opportunity to compete for state, regional, and national AYF championships. Children ages 5-15 are eligible to participate.
