LOCAL FLAG TEAM HEADED TO VEGAS

YOUNGSTOWN, OH- For only the sixth time in area history, Youngstown will be represented in a Flag Football National Championship setting.

The Valley will be represented the first week in February in Las Vegas, Nevada in the form of a handful of young men competing for a title in one of the world’s fastest-growing sports.

As proud as they are to have locked in the spot, they will need our area’s help to get there.  Other NFL franchises, and flag organizations are helping out their teams financially, but these young men are being tasked with raising funds for their trip on their own.

We caught up with a couple players as well as the Assistant Coach, Josh Tedesco to fill us in on how you can help.  (Which you can see in the pictures below as well)
