Pop Warner football is coming to Grovetown.

The Grovetown Grizzlies will begin practice in August along with nine other organizations in the newly-formed East Georgia Pop Warner League.

Within each organization are seven divisions for children ages 5 to 15, ranging from Tiny-Mite (5 to 7 years, 35 to 75 pounds) to Unlimited (11 to 14 years, 105 pounds-plus).

Jimmy Cronan, who will coach the Grizzlies’ Tiny-Mite team, and Burt Rayburn, who will coach a squad within the Martinez Raiders, were the driving force behind the creation of the league.

It was a super soccer Tuesday night for Augusta Prep, whose offensive attack was too much for Augusta Christian to handle.

In the first game, the Lady Cavaliers whitewashed the Lady Lions 9-0, followed by the boys 10-3 comeback win.

The Lady Cavaliers (2-0) scored 18 seconds into the game on a goal by Jamie Alexander, the first of her three, and that was all they would need.

Alexander played about five minutes in the first half, and after assisting on the team’s eighth goal, was moved to defense in the second half.
