Nocatee's Next Game Days Start Small: Youth Football and Cheer Return

Some of Nocatee's most memorable fall sports moments will belong to children learning the game for the first time.

First Baptist Church at Nocatee is preparing its flag football and cheerleading season for first- through sixth-graders. The program lists the first practice for the week of September 19 and the first game for the week of September 26. Practices and games are scheduled for Saturday mornings, with practice before games. Program details and registration

The church partners with Upward Sports and describes a program centered on skills, teamwork, and physical and spiritual development. Its page provides links for participant registration and volunteers.

For families, the appeal is close to home: a regular place to play, learn and support a team. A first completed pass or a newly learned cheer can make a Saturday feel every bit as significant as a stadium occasion.

Parents should use the organizer's registration page to confirm availability, costs and equipment requirements. The first dates are approaching, and Nocatee's youngest fall athletes will soon have their own game days to anticipate.
