Drew Brees Backed Youth Flag Football Coming to Shreveport [VIDEO]
Jackie Brock and Rick Holland talk with 101.7 / 710 KEEL's Robert J Wright and Erin McCarty about their involvement in Football N America (FNA), a non-contact youth co-ed flag football league for grades K-10 co-founded by New Orleans Saints Quarterback Drew Brees, The league, which will begin local play in March, is "designed to provide a safe, positive, competitive, and family-friendly environment to learn football the right way."
More from playfna.com:
"FNA was founded based on Brees’ lifelong love of the game, and focuses on teaching children of different ages and skill levels fundamental techniques while protecting them from the potential dangers associated with full-contact football. Brees himself did not play tackle football until high-school, proving that kids can still experience the highest levels of the game while mitigating the risks to their physical development. It was something that immediately sold Brandon Beard of Beard and Brock Marketing on bringing it to Northwest Louisiana."
