Suffolk County Police Athletic League football held a scrimmage at
Tasker Park in Peconic on Saturday as pre-season training kicked into
high gear. Boys and girls from all over Long Island, accompanied by
parents and coaches, enjoyed a morning of practice games.
According
to the PAL’s mission statement, the purpose of the football program is
“to provide a safe and caring environment for as many children as
possible to play organized tackle football.”
