Gold Jacket Classic will be held during Enshrinement week in Canton

For the past four years, youth flag football has caught the eyes of the NFL to the point that certain clubs have promoted youth flag football. Flag football has grown to the point that this organization will be hosting their first Gold Jacket Classic during HOF week.

“The Pro Football Hall of Fame is proud to be teaming with Unrivaled to bring another premier Flag football event to the region,” said Jim Porter, president & CEO of the Hall. “And for it to coincide with the opening of the 106th NFL season will make it even more special to the young players who can see legends from today’s game and elite Hall of Fame members.” All teams will compete in a one-day tournament format featuring pool play, playoffs and championship rounds. Top teams in each division will receive a half-paid bid to the 2026 Youth Flag Football World Championships.

Inspiration comes from all walks of life, so this will be a great event that will put smiles on the youth faces as well as you never know what Hall of Famer, may show up.
