Hi Football Girls!

Sorry we haven't posted much on the FB page recently, but it's for a good reason. Our founder, Melissa Jacobs, has been hard at work with her new creative venture, Changing the Game, covering the inner workings of youth sports through a (free!) substack newsletter. Wanted to pass along for anyone on here who might be interested in subscribing. Check it out!

(And don't worry, Melissa will still be covering football too.)

HUGE NEWS OUT OF TAMPA

Bruce Arians steps down as Bucs coach; defensive coordinator Todd Bowles picked as successor. Tom Brady, Arians said, “was very in favor of what I’m doing.”

Let's hear your picks!! 🏈🏈🏈

Let’s be real. It is almost mathematical impossible to produce a weekend of football like we witnessed in the divisional round.

Not the best of circumstances (WFT RB coach out with COVID) but... still so freaking cool that Jennifer King made history last night as the first woman of color to serve as a position coach in an NFL game. 🙌
