How can opportunities to play make Chattanooga a better place?
PLAY Chattanooga discovered that by changing the relationship between law-enforcement and inner-city youth through sports, we can transform lives in Chattanooga. Police Leadership And Youth (PLAY) Chattanooga has launched three successful community events in the year of 2016 that have allowed authority figures and inner-city youth to experience each other on a level playing field.
PLAY Chattanooga wants to continue to promote positive interactions between authority figures and inner-city youth. Through Causeway, PLAY hopes to raise the funds to establish PLAY's first Flag Football League. Our Spring Season League will consist of 8-session games, 1-championship game, and 2 practices a week. Our weekly practices will not only teach kids the safety and fundamentals of football but also influence great life choices, character building, and self-discipline.
The goal is to keep the kids on the field and off the streets by allowing our dedicated authority figures to be the focal point in the kids' lives. Through your contribution, we will maintain a consistent involvement with our professional coaches and referees throughout the season, provide kits and uniform to all the kids, provide an awarding championship game, and support additional relationship building activities.
