The FWCYFL seeks to make a positive difference in the lives of the young boys that participate in their program, with the goal of helping these young athletes learn not just football skills, but to grow as Christian leaders socially, morally and spiritually through their football program.As most of us fondly recall our youth and the coaches who inspired us, we believe our coaches have the power to model Christ-centered behavior and thus inspire our kids to try to live that way. Play Like a Champion is the perfect program and partner to help the FWCYFL teach these Christ-centered values and behaviors to our community so that parents and coaches reinforce these ideals with our young men.”

First among PLC partners is the FWCFL in creating a parent-based “PLC Champion Committee” to ensure the PLC philosophy permeates the whole football experience. Some plans of the Champion Committee include: weekly reminders in the game program of the PLC philosophy, weekly verbal reminders prior to game Kick-Offs reflecting PLC values, emails to coach and team incorporating spiritual and inspirational quotes, taking responsibility to maintain to positive sideline environment and ensuring post-season athlete and parent surveys are distributed and completed. The executive committee of the Champion committee is already hard at work planning their approach.
