Starting this week, Orcas Park and Rec is offering Kings Football.

This year’s team will be playing in the NCYFL Midget category with games in Friday Harbor and on the mainland. League play will be for ages nine and 10; both boys and girls are welcome to participate.

This year’s team will be coached by Denny Rancourt, who is bringing his many years of coaching experience. He has coached teams from college level down through his many years with the Orcas Kings.

“The Kings are an important feeder program to the Orcas High School Football team, and we are excited to bring back this beginning-level football experience,” say organizers.

They are looking for contributions to support the purchase of equipment for this younger team. For $250 you can provide a full compliment of individual gear.

If you are interested in participating or volunteering, contact Orcas Park and Rec at www.orcasparkandrec.org or call 376-7275.
