The City of Lake Charles Recreation and Parks Department and McNeese State University Athletics are once again teaming up to present the Next Stars Football League this fall.
 
New this year, individual registrations are being accepted, and a skills combine/draft will take place in mid-August to form teams.
 
There is a $35 per child fee to register and a birth certificate and photo ID (school or state-issued) must be uploaded the time of online registration at www.cityoflakecharles.com. Two divisions will be formed for play, including a 9–10-year-old division and a 11–12-year-old division. Players cannot turn 13 prior to August 1.
 
Games will be held at the Ward 3 Power Center Sports Complex and the play-off championship series is scheduled to be played at McNeese’s Cowboy Stadium.
