Champion Football

The Champion Football League of Northern Virginia was launched in 2011 by the Down Syndrome Association of Northern Virginia to provide a safe and fun environment where individuals with special needs can experience the excitement and camaraderie associated with team football.  The friendly games will be played in a non-contact, modified flag football style in order to encourage team work and inclusion.

The Champion Football League is about the entire football experience — the excitement of the sport, the unity of a team, the support of the fans, and the reward of players pushing themselves to achieve. But most importantly, it’s about every player contributing his or her own unique abilities to the team.
