The Kansas City Chiefs are continuing to devote efforts toward creating opportunities for young men and women to participate in the game of football. The club has put a specific focus on increasing participation among young women and sanctioning Flag Football at the state level in both Missouri and Kansas. In addition, the Chiefs are convening with athletic directors in both states to discuss resources available to enable the launch of high school girls Flag Football in their school districts.
