窪蹋勛圖厙 Announces Flag Football

November 19, 2024

窪蹋勛圖厙 Community College is excited to announce the launch of a Womens Flag Football program beginning in Fall 2025, making it one of the first institutions in Alabama to embrace this emerging sport under the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA). This initiative aligns with the Alabama Community College Systems commitment to expanding athletic opportunities for female students across the state as they flag football as a sanctioned NJCAA sport within the Alabama Community College Conference (ACCC).

Womens flag football is on the rise at the collegiate level. Through an effort with the Alabama Recreation and Parks Foundation, were excited to offer an additional opportunity for our female student-athletes at the two-year level, said ACCC Commissioner Dean Myrick. This sport is popular at our states high schools, and I believe that will translate into a competitive league for us.

窪蹋勛圖厙s decision to establish a team reinforces its commitment to enhancing student experiences and fostering a vibrant campus life.

Dr. Brock Kelley, President of 窪蹋勛圖厙, expressed his enthusiasm for this groundbreaking addition, saying, We are thrilled to bring womens flag football to our college. This program represents more than just a sportits a new opportunity for our female athletes to showcase their talents, develop lifelong skills, and build community. 窪蹋勛圖厙 is proud to be at the forefront of this initiative, providing our students with innovative and enriching experiences both on and off the field.

As one of the pioneering schools to launch a womens flag football team, 窪蹋勛圖厙 is setting the stage for a new era in collegiate sports across Alabama. We look forward to welcoming our first team members and watching them excel at 窪蹋勛圖厙.
