Escambia County will host the NFL Punt, Pass & Kick program on Sunday, September 28, at 2 p.m., on the adult softball fields at John R. Jones Athletic Park, 555 East Nine Mile Road. Boys and girls, ages six through 15 are eligible to participate in this free program.
Established in 1961, the NFL Punt, Pass & Kick program is the oldest NFL youth football program. Girls and boys in five separate age divisions (6-7, 8-9, 10-11, 12-13, and 14-15) compete against each other in punting, passing and place-kicking in a fun and engaging forum.
With more than four million boys and girls from around the country participating in the NFL Punt, Pass & Kick competition each year, it is one of the world's largest youth sports participation programs.
Local children have an opportunity to move on to the sectional competition and possibly visit New Orleans for the Team Championships.
