Nucar Toyota Kicks Off NFL FLAG Season with a Pizza Party for Local Youth Teams

On September 26, 2024 our sister dealership, Nucar Toyota of Norwood, hosted a vibrant kickoff event for the NFL FLAG season. The event brought together over 75 young athletes and their families for an exciting evening of games, team introductions, and plenty of pizza. The dealership’s partnership with the NFL FLAG initiative is part of its commitment to supporting local youth sports and fostering a strong sense of community.

NFL FLAG: A Quick Overview

If you’re new to the program, NFL FLAG is the premier non-contact football league in the United States, with over 1,800 leagues and more than 700,000 participants. This fast-paced, inclusive version of football is designed to give boys and girls ages 4 to 17 the chance to develop fundamental skills while having fun in a safe environment. Leagues like the one supported by Nucar Toyota help make the sport accessible to all kids, regardless of ability or background.

A Memorable Kickoff Event

The September 26th event marked the beginning of an exciting season for local flag football players from the INVENSYS Foxboro YMCA. The celebration, hosted at Nucar Toyota of Norwood, featured a pizza party, uniform handouts, and games to get everyone pumped up for the upcoming season. Representatives from Toyota, Nucar, and the YMCA were on hand to welcome the new teams, distribute co-branded uniforms, and discuss the importance of youth involvement in sports.

Jason Aufiero, General Manager of Nucar Toyota of Norwood, shared his thoughts on the event: “Here at Nucar Toyota, community support is everything. Getting younger kids involved in flag football is crucial to teaching them teamwork, sportsmanship, and responsibility. We’re excited to be a part of their journey.”

What This Partnership Means for Our Community

As a proud sponsor of NFL FLAG, Nucar Toyota of Norwood and Nucar Toyota of North Attleboro are not just supporting the local Foxboro YMCA team but also ensuring that the cost of participation remains affordable. Sponsorships cover registration fees, uniforms, and operational costs, making it easier for families to get involved in the program.

Josh Kincaid from RCX Sports, the official operating partner of NFL FLAG, added, “Programs like this make football accessible to more kids, and companies like Nucar Toyota play a key role in making that happen.”

Looking Ahead: A Season Full of Possibilities

The 2024-2025 NFL FLAG season promises to be an exciting one, with games set to take place at the Foxboro YMCA. As part of this national initiative, local players will have the chance to compete and potentially make it all the way to the NFL FLAG Championship in Canton, Ohio. This opportunity allows kids to not only grow their skills on the field but also build friendships and a love for the game that will last a lifetime.

Nucar Toyota is proud to play a role in this journey, helping to bring the joy of flag football to kids in our community.
