Parks seeking provider for youth football

The Milton Parks and Recreation Department has issued a request for proposals for a football program provider, starting with the fall 2019 season.

Milton sports programs including baseball, basketball, football, lacrosse, tennis and swim team are offered in partnership with third-party contractors and vendors that administer the programs on behalf of the city, according to a city announcement.
