RE: Under 14

if you score a very important goal and your so happy and you celebrate it a lot can the ref give you a yellow card?

Absolutely and without doubt.

Is certainly cardable if excessive or taunting. SOme celebration is expected and tolerated.

Yes, and next season it again becomes a mandatory caution if the player removes his shirt to celebrate his goal!
