The Foundation for Interscholastic Youth Athletics (FIYA) is a Los Angeles–based 501(c)(3) nonprofit founded in August 2011 that organizes and governs interscholastic sports leagues and competitions for elementary and middle schools across Los Angeles County. FIYA’s programming is explicitly inclusive—open to public, private, and religious school students—and focuses on schools in economically disadvantaged areas to expand opportunities for youth to participate in sports.
