LIAFO
Foundation
The LIAFO Foundation was formed by the membership of the Long
Island Association Of Football Officials for the purpose of promoting a broader
and deeper appreciation of the significance of teamwork in high school
athletics.
The foundation will provide recognition to a varsity football players in High
School within Section VIII, Nassau County, New York who are the most dedicated
and overachieving players who normally have little playing time. These are the
players whose participation requires personal sacrifice normally with little
recognition but without whom there would be no team. These are our UNSUNG
HERO'S.
The Foundation will solicit and use charitable funds to provide a recognition
plaque to one player from each school who was nominated by the Head Coach. In
addition, a one year monetary "UNSUNG HERO" scholarship award will be
made to four of those nominated.
