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.”
