AAG Owned and Operated "Turkey Bowl"
Supports "Girls First" Initiative
MESA, Ariz. , July 17,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Arizona Athletic Grounds
(AAG), America's premier youth sports and entertainment
facility, proudly announces its inaugural "Turkey Bowl." The
three-day girls flag football tournament will be held November 29th to December 1st at AAG's
280-acre grounds. The event is expected to draw more than 100 teams
to Mesa, Arizona, from across the
nation to compete in age-based divisions spanning 12U to
18U.
"With the explosion in popularity of flag football, and the
sport's inclusion in the Olympics starting in 2028, what better way
to continue building AAG's 'Girls First' platform than to create a
flag tournament of our own," said AAG president, Meg Stevens. "We can't wait to welcome more than
a thousand girls and their families for three days of fun and
spirited competition across our world class facility and 24
fields."
The Turkey Bowl marks the latest milestone for AAG's
trailblazing 'Girls First' initiative, its commitment to gender
equity in sports through premium experiences and unique engagement
opportunities for its female athlete community. Tournament
participants will be treated to a vibrant game-day atmosphere
celebrating their skills and dedication, featuring celebrity guest
appearances and athlete interviews to be showcased on AAG's social
media channels. This announcement follows the recent launch of
AAG's NIL (Name, Image and Likeness) Ambassador Program, awarding
$10,000 apiece to three exceptional
female collegiate student-athletes. To submit Ambassador
