The Redzone Tournament is where speed meets strategy—a fast-paced hybrid of passing league and flag football. It’s a quarterback’s dream… or maybe their worst nightmare. Tight windows, quick reads, no time to blink. Welcome to the proving ground.

How the "Champions for Charity" Grant Works

To ensure our focus remains on the game and the community, we’ve streamlined how tournament winnings are handled. Here is a simple breakdown of the process:

• Play for the Win: Teams compete for the top spot on the leaderboard as usual.

• Select Your Cause: The winning team in each division earns the right to direct a pre-set charitable grant to an organization of their choice.

• Verified Impact: To ensure the funds do the most good, the chosen recipient must be a registered non-profit, school program, or community youth organization.

• Direct Donation: Once the champion is crowned, the tournament organizers will issue the donation directly to the selected organization in the team's name.

Note: To maintain the spirit of youth sports and amateur eligibility, no cash prizes or financial compensation are awarded directly to individual players, coaches, or parents.

FAQ: Quick Answers for Parents & Coaches

Can we choose any charity?

Yes, as long as it is a registered non-profit or a recognized community organization (such as a local food bank, youth shelter, or school athletic fund).

Does the money go to the players?

No. 100% of the designated prize pool is paid directly to the chosen organization to support their mission.

What if we don’t have a charity in mind?

Don’t worry! We have a list of incredible local partners we can recommend if your team wins and would like suggestions.
