This season marks the second for the adult women’s league in Boynton Beach, Florida. “Being a mom, we don’t have to sit on the stands all the time,” shares Brianne Hill (mom of 3 and Gridiron athlete for team Hot Flashes). “We get to play and get out there, and do the things that they do.”

And the demand for the league is only growing according to Mike Berkowitz, our Gridiron Commissioner in Florida: “The community’s gotten really behind us. The families are out here with signs and posters. I’m hoping we can grow this league into a year round (league) with 20-30 teams a season.”
