Jets & ECAC Transform Women's Flag Football
The Betty Wold Johnson Foundation gave a groundbreaking $1 million grant to the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) to transform the landscape of women's flag football. This investment, directed by Woody Johnson, funded the creation of the largest collegiate women's flag football league in the nation. Gameplay for the league features the 7-on-7 format of flag football. The season kicks off with a media day at MetLife Stadium in February. Regular season games are played February through April on campus sites, culminating in the championship game at MetLife Stadium in May. This initiative underscores the Johnson Family's and New York Jets unwavering commitment to expanding access and opportunity for women in the sport.
