The Camrose Buffaloes Football Association is a youth football organization that is run by a Board of Volunteers. We aim to have our players learn the game, have fun, and compete to the best of their ability. Our certified coaches will provide training, skill development and FUNdamentals of football.
The Camrose Buffaloes are part of the Capital District Minor Football Association (CDMFA). The CDMFA is based out of Edmonton and therefore we play the majority of our games in Edmonton and area. The Registrar will complete the registration for your player with CDMFA and Football Alberta. All players have to be registered with CDMFA and Football Alberta before they can step onto the football field.

Return to Play Policy
If a player happens to get injured or suffers a concussion, where a visit to the Doctor or Emergency department is required, or if the Trainer or Coaching staff determines it necessary for the players safety, a doctor’s note is required before the player is allowed to return to play. If an injury happens outside of football this policy still applies. Players are asked to still come to the Camp days to continue to learn the game and be part of the Team.
