Nucar Toyota of Norwood was thrilled to host the NFL FLAG football kickoff event on September 26th, bringing together young athletes, families, and the local community for an exciting start to the new season. The dealership partnered with Toyota and RCX Sports to celebrate their sponsorship of the Invensys Foxboro YMCA team, a part of the largest flag football league in the U.S. with over 700,000 boys and girls participating nationwide.

A Night to Remember: Pizza, Uniforms, and Team Spirit

On a beautiful Thursday evening, more than 75 youth athletes and their families gathered at Nucar Toyota of Norwood to kick off the NFL FLAG season with a pizza party. Players received their co-branded uniforms, met their new teammates, and enjoyed fun activities, including games and delicious pizza, generously provided by the dealership. The event was a fantastic opportunity for the players to bond and for families to connect as they prepare for the exciting months of flag football ahead.

NFL FLAG: An Overview for New Readers

For those unfamiliar with the program, NFL FLAG is the official flag football program of the NFL, offering non-contact, fast-paced football to youth athletes ages 4 to 17. With a strong focus on inclusivity and accessibility, NFL FLAG is open to boys and girls of all abilities, providing a safe and fun way to learn fundamental football skills. The program is growing rapidly, with over 1,800 leagues across the U.S., including the Invensys Foxboro YMCA team, which Nucar Toyota proudly sponsors.

As part of our partnership, Nucar Toyota of Norwood and Nucar Toyota of North Attleboro are covering registration fees, uniform costs, and more for the Massachusetts team, ensuring that every child can participate without financial barriers. We believe in the power of sports to build character, foster friendships, and inspire young athletes to stay active and confident.

The excitement is just beginning! The Invensys Foxboro YMCA team will compete throughout the fall and spring, with the ultimate goal of making it to the NFL FLAG Championships at the Hall of Fame Village in Canton, Ohio, in July 2025.
