Let HER Play: Kansas City Chiefs Advocate for Girls' Flag Football in Kansas
The Kansas City Chiefs are launching the "Let HER Play" campaign to advocate for the inclusion of official high school flag football for girls in Kansas. The team is organizing community events at various Hy-Vee locations to gather support before the upcoming vote by the Kansas State High School Activities Association (KSHSAA) on April 23. Chiefs staff members will distribute "Let HER Play" flags and keychains at the events in Lawrence, Topeka, Lenexa, Mission, Olathe, Overland Park, and Prairie Village. Participants can show their support by scanning QR codes or signing an online petition.
If the proposal is approved, schools in Kansas will have the opportunity to offer structured flag football programs for girls, establish regulations, and host official KSHSAA state competitions. This initiative aims to provide young female athletes with additional avenues to participate in the sport.
