While the weather so far this September has still felt a lot like summer, the fall activities are certainly underway. Flag football is something that has been a campus activity for about as long as most people can remember. It has seen pretty solid involvement and excitement from the high schoolers almost every year. When Covid-19 hit, however, it took a toll on the number of people that played, and there were a few down years in participation. We are happy to report that has not been the case for the last three years now, and flag football is thriving! Under the guise of a new name, the IFFL (Immanuel Flag Football League) has upped the standard for flag football here at Immanuel.
This year featured the 2nd annual draft 'combine' for high schoolers to showcase their different talents before the drafting of teams took place by 4 of the college boys on the highly anticipated draft night. There is also a very balanced participation among the classes, with 10 Freshman, 7 Sophomores, 7 Juniors, and 7 Seniors signing up to play. Besides just the combine, the league also has an Instagram page, where game scores, players of the week, game polls and other things all get posted. This year even saw the introduction of a Spotify podcast! With the first week of games underway, there is a lot to look forward to this year flag football wise, and we thank the Lord for all the blessings we've had so far!
