The Edina Football Association makes its best effort to give the opportunity to all children who have an interest in playing football.  Through our scholarship program, we are typically able to assist most families who apply for financial assistance, with some level of scholarship.  We carefully consider each application and do our best to be stewards of all EFA family members who contribute financially and who have committed their time to being a part of the EFA family, and our expectation of all kids and families is that all players participate in practices and games, and strive to be good teammates and community members. 

Edina Give and Go removes financial barriers for Edina Public Schools students looking to get involved in opportunities offered by Edina Football Association and beyond.
