Tepper Foundation Pledges $1M for Girls Flag Football
Description
The David and Nicole Tepper Foundation recently pledged one million dollars to expand girls high school flag football in North Carolina and South Carolina. This comes after the North Carolina High School Athletic Association approved flag football as a varsity sport. The foundation and Carolina Panthers have already invested over one million five hundred thousand dollars in grants and programs, with one hundred fifty-four high schools in North Carolina and fifty-five in South Carolina planning teams for the two thousand twenty-six and two thousand twenty-seven seasons. The Teppers hailed the initiative as a game-changer, with Nicole Tepper highlighting the need for resources on Good Morning Football. North Carolina joins twenty-one other states sanctioning the sport, and the Panthers launched a hype video featuring NFL rookie star Tetairoa McMillan and legend Greg Olsen. The momentum aims to provide girls across the Carolinas with real opportunities to compete and shine, fueling the sports growth for years to come.
