Shelby Lions Football and Cheerleading update:
Due to safety concerns related to COVID-19, Shelby Parks & Recreation will not offer youth flag or tackle football, as well as cheerleading. While we are disappointed, the safety and wellbeing of our players, coaches, parents and staff will always be a top priority. This decision was based on guidance from both the North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services in conjunction with the Governor’s Phase 2 Executive Order, as well as the North Carolina High School Athletic Association.
It is our hope that the situation will improve, and youth football and cheerleading returning in the spring of 2021. Please keep posted for updates on our website, page or call the City Parks offices at 704-484-6811.
Also note: If you have already paid your fee for 2020 you have 2 options. You may request a full refund, or apply your payment to the 2021 season.
