1. Kenosha girls flag football team wraps up inaugural season

Well, Indian Trails girls flag football team just wrapped up its inaugural season. They compete with other schools in Racine and Milwaukee. And as Fox 6's Racine Kenosha County reporter Ben Hanson explains, even though it's their first go-around, they already have the bond of a team that's been together for decades. The athletes on the girls flag football team at Indian Trail High School can't say enough good things about it. It's so fun. I really enjoy our team dynamics. Delilah Deliff and Tyler Miles are the captains, leading the group through its first season. Just amazing people. They're all so sweet and loving and just amazing. An amazing group. On Elise Biddle, a chemistry teacher at Indian Trail, jumped at the opportunity to coach the team. She has been coaching the Powder Puff team for the past six years, and the players always wanted more. Miss Biddle, can we keep playing? Can we extend the season? We want to play more than just one game. And I always wanted to say yes, but we didn't have the funding or the means for it. And so when this became an opportunity, I was so excited. The squad plays through the Driven Flag Football League, started by former Green Bay wide receiver Donald Driver. The organization has given them the funding for official jerseys and organized a six-week schedule, which runs from September to October. Seeing just the girls grow as athletes and as people, and it's been a really wonderful experience. But the entire team is pushing to get their sport officially recognized by the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association. They're out there at practice working their butts off, and they deserve just as much credibility as the boys do. We're just as important, okay? Even though we might be girls, we can still get out on the field and play ball. Tyler and Delilah play other sports at the school, but they have found something special with this group. Really close friends. Basically like a sisterhood, I would say. in Kenosha. Ben Hanson, Fox 6 News. Well, the Wisconsin Football Coaches Association is also pushing to get flag football recognized as an official sport. A vote will go in front of the WIAA in April and the first official season could be as soon as fall 2027.
