From now until Jan. 18, online voting for your local favorite football player is available at the Coastal Courier’s Prep Sports Web site at: http://sports.coastalcouier.com/pre-sports.

On Jan. 31, Parade magazine will announce the winners selected to the 2010 All-American team.

Since 1957 Parade has annually honored the finest high school football, basketball and soccer players in the United States with the Parade All-America award. This year Parade is expanding this athletic program to honor high school students who make a big difference in their communities.

All-America Athlete Athletic teams and players will be featured in Parade Magazine and will receive reward certificates and official letters. The player of the year also receives a trophy.

All-America Service 30 service winners will be featured in Parade magazine, invited to a two-day event in Washington, D.C., including a visit to the White House and will be honored at an awards ceremony.

Simply access our sports Web site and cast your vote. There is no registration at Parade involved but you must know the players first name, last name, year of graduation, high school and position.
