Youth football sign-ups this week
“It’s football time” in McMinnville, Tennessee.
The Pioneer Youth Football League is gearing up for its 2002 season, and will hold sign-ups for its various age groups this week.
Registration for this year’s league will be held Thursday and Friday at the McMinnville Civic Center from 5-8:30 p.m.
Players ages 5-12 are eligible to play, and must bring a birth certificate and a $35 sign-up fee when they register. Also, any player from last year who still has any equipment is asked to return it at registration.
At the completion of registration, players will be divided into teams in four different age groups: 5-6, 7-8, 9-10, and 11-12. Each age group competes in full gear, and 7-year-olds and up play full contact tackle. The 5-6 year-old division will play flag football.
Practices for the upcoming season will begin in early August, and games will begin in September, with action held each Saturday at Bobby Ray Elementary School.
For more information, call Brad Cantrell at 668-3659 or Anthony Cantrell at 473-1617.
Any parents wanting to serve as a commissioner this season are encouraged to contact Mark DiChristina at 635-3025.
