Physical Activity Participation

Ever since I brought in NFL FLAG gear, the group of participants has grown quite large. Soccer season will be ending soon and many of the soccer team players want to join the NFL FLAG program when soccer season is over. Thanks!

How did you accomplish your goals?

I wanted to teach our kids to play football americano and they are dedicated to the program and learning.

How do you plan to make this Play last during the school year and beyond?

I went to an NFL FLAG PD and received the equipment late spring in the school year and promised the students and myself that the program would take off this school year in the fall.

What improvements have you seen at your school?

I have noticed that the students are working harder on their behavior and grades because part of being involved with the program is that you have to maintain grades and proper behavior.
