Football registration is next week

    Aroostook Football is kicking off its seventh season with registration for interested players in Presque Isle, Caribou, Fort Fairfield, Mars Hill, Washburn, Limestone and Ashland.     Prospective players who will be in middle school this fall will meet on Tuesday, July 21 at 6:30 p.m. in Weiden Gymnasium on the University of Maine at Presque Isle campus.
    For players who will be in high school this fall, the meeting will be on Wednesday, July 22, at 6:30 p.m.  in Weiden Auditorium on the UMPI campus.  
    “These meetings are important for giving players and their parents a chance to meet the coaches and ask questions about the program,” said Stu Wyckoff, high school program administrator.         “This is also the time when proper fitting (essential to safety) of helmets and shoulder pads will be done in order to assure having equipment available for every player when the season begins.”
    Those unable to attend this meeting, in order to make arrangements to be fit for a uniform, need to contact Dan Bagley (551-3545) for the middle school team or Stu Wyckoff (764-7651) for the high school team.
    “We’re looking forward to a very exciting season with games being played both here in Aroostook County and in Canada as we become a league with an international flavor,” Wyckoff said.
