About this program

Connect Sports Football was created to foster the development of Christian faith, character and leadership in our youth while teaching the fundamentals of flag football. Players learn running, passing and receiving. Flag pulling instead of contact football lets players learn formations and skills in a fun, safe environment.

Connect Sports partners with the NFL Flag Football association so teams compete in familiar NFL team shirts. Students learn what it means to be part of our culture and how to stand out as a child of Christ. Through individualized Bible devotionals, players grow integrity and sportsmanship.
