Challenger Flag Football 2026 - GAME DAYS

Description

Don’t miss out on Challenger Flag Football (CFF) this fall! This exciting program is offered through Park & Recreation's Therapeutic & Inclusive Recreation Section, in partnership with the Carolina Panthers. The CFF league gives participants ages 7-12 (Junior League) and 13 and up (Senior League), with a disability, the opportunity to improve sportsmanship, experience teamwork, and enjoy football!
*This is an 8-week program - we are looking for energetic Volunteers who can attend every week!

The season runs from September 9 through October 31, with practices on Wednesdays (5:30-6:30pm) and games on Saturdays (9am-12:00). In addition, Volunteers are welcome to assist with our Jersey Reveal and Kickoff events, and the Jamboree - dates to be determined.  

Volunteers will assist with leading football drills and skills as well as coach teams and encourage and assist players on the field as needed. Wear athletic clothing and closed-toe shoes; hats are OK!

*You must be at least 18 years old to help with Adaptive Sports programs - all Coaches/CFF Volunteers must have a current application/background check on file. Contact VolunteerServices@MeckNC.gov if you need to apply or check your status.
