FAIRFIELD, Conn. The pro football season begins this weekend, and Fairfields Police Activities League has a way the towns kids can get in on the fun without strapping on pads. The organization will host a punt, pass and kick competition Saturday morning at Fairfield Ludlowe High School.
Boys and girls ages 8 to 15 can sign up to throw, kick and punt a football as far and as straight as they can. The kids with the best total distance in their age groups will move on to a regional competition in October for the chance to compete at halftime during a New York Giants game at Giants Stadium.
The event is free for all who wish to enter. Players can show up to compete from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Saturday at Fairfield Ludlowes football field. Competitors are now allowed to wear cleats. For more information, contact Officer Scott Sudora at 203-254-4808.
