Sports briefs: Pop Warner football sign up deadline near and more

Sign up for Pop Warner football, deadline is week from today

North Tahoe Pop Warner Coach Dennis Perry is encouraging Incline Village and Crystal Bay children, as well as others along the North Shore, to sign up to play Pop Warner football this summer.

This program is for children in the North Lake Tahoe area ages 7 through 13 (age is the child’s age on July 31) to play in three separate teams — a 9-9 team, and 8-11 team and an 11-13 team. Perry said the teams are split up based on age level, size and ability.

The next round of registration takes place from 6 to 8 p.m. on Wednesday, May 7, at the Incline Recreation Center. Cost is $170 per youth if paid by that May 7 deadline.

Children and their parents need to bring a copy of a birth certificate, a copy of a recent report card and a check for the registration fee upon registration.

For more information contact Dennis Perry at (775) 240-0862, via e-mail at dclperry@sbcglobal.net or visit the Web site at www.northtahoepopwarner.com.
