G Gathering Punt, Pass & Kick Success

Punt, Pass & Kick Success



The Portsmouth Sports Club sponsored the first ever Punt, Pass & Kick competition in the city, which was held at Wilson High School. Even though only 13 participants competed, organizers of the event expressed excitement that the event will bring more children to compete next year. Seven participants advanced to the sectional competition, which will be held in October. Finalists will be given a chance to compete at FedEX Field during the Redskins game in November. Volunteers from Wilson and Norcom High School football teams assisted the Sports Club in organizing the event.
