Colonial Beach Youth Athletic Association
CBYAA is a long standing organization dedicated to the youth of Colonial Beach, Virginia. Organized football and cheer activities have been a source of pride and camaraderie in our town. The foundational skills learned in youth sports have carried into school sports, giving a solid knowledge base to CBYAA alumni. Since the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the original organization and local league was disbanded.
In 2024, it was recognized that the youth of our community benefit from organized sports and the decision was made to reorganize CBYAA. The parents that represent CBYAA on the Board all have children who were part of CBYAA in their formative years and played or still play in High School sports.
CBYAA recognizes the importance of athletics as well as academics and has done their best to maintain schedules for practices and games that are convenient to the families that have trusted us with their children. While tackle football won't be available in 2024, CBYAA is excited to have organized a home league for flag football and cheerleading for athletes from ages 5-12 years.
The structured skills learning that will occur will be valuable experience as CBYAA progresses back to tackle football, as will the learning block skills of CBYAA cheerleading. Our goal is to teach teamwork, respect, and dedication while putting in time on the field.
We look forward to working with our community and its children as we continue to develop the program and look forward to its ongoing success.
