My husband has been playing flag football with other Falconz team members for over 5 years and has been impressed by them all in athletics and as people of character and integrity. Because of that my husband encouraged me to join the organization in order to help with women’s sports and opportunity to connect with other women. This is my first year playing with the team but have been blown away by how supportive the women involved have been.
I've been playing with the Utah Falconz for 3 years and goin into my 4th season. I love this organization and the empowerment I've felt from being apart of this organization is incredible and then being able to empower other women to become more independent and confident. It's an honor to be apart of this and encourage everyone to be involved!
I moved to Utah in 2022 to be a part of this organization. Having played against the team for a couple of years, I knew they were a great fit for me and an organization I wanted to be a part of in my football life and a place to give my time and energy volunteering. A year and a half later, I’m proud to serve as a volunteer on our Board of Directors while I continue to play the sport I love with an incredible group of strong, vibrant, kind and caring women. Looking forward to what we can accomplish in 2024!
