The Capital Youth League is also preparing for next season as it looks to build on a strong first year in 2023. Beaumont local Kasey Nonette, former high school and professional quarterback, led the league with six groups last season. Four were from Beaumont and two from Port Arthur.
Registration has not yet opened for this league, but Nonette said the league is planning to add more teams for next season, as interest is growing.
“Registration is done through each and every one of the CYFL teams,” said Nonette. “Each team starts regularly by signing up in the spring and summer. “
