Registration now open for flag football, cheer leading

League kicks off in mid-July

MILTON, Ga., July 3, 2014 - Registration is now open for the City of Milton's NFL Play 60 flag football and cheer leading summer/fall league presented by former pro running back and Milton resident Tim Lester.

The third and fourth grade league, which begins July 23 and lasts until Nov. 22, will be held at Birmingham Falls Elementary School (click here for directions) Mondays and Wednesdays.

To sign your child up for this fun, fast-paced instructional league, visit www.timlester.org. You may also sign up any time by visiting the City of Milton's Online Activity Guide.

Every participant of NFL flag football enjoys playing in an organized, team environment with the safety benefits of participating in a non-contact sport. Head coaches and trained officials will be present at all games and practices to enforce safe play.

Milton cheer leading (ages 5-13) is for those who enjoy being part of a team, want to build their self-confidence, activity level and, most importantly, want to have fun and foster lifelong friendships.
