It may be the middle of the youth baseball season, but it's time for area youngsters to start thinking about other sports.

Local youth leagues will hold signups for soccer, football and basketball programs in the next few weeks.

The Sunnyvale Soccer AYSO will hold signups for the fall season on May 31 (noon-5 p.m. at Town Center Courtyard) and June 14 (noon-5 p.m. at Ponderosa Park).
