In the grand, dusty state of Arizona, where cacti stand tall and the sun always shines, a group of wild kids rule the land. A land where the flag football reigns supreme. It's not elephants, nor is it lions, but kids who are the stars of this peculiar desert. These aren't your regular kids, oh no, these are the "Arizona Flag Football Furies". Leading these sporty sprouts is a ten-foot-tall jackrabbit named "Jumpy Jake". With ears as big as palm leaves and legs as springy as a trampoline, he makes for a rather comical sight. But don't be fooled by his goofy grin and fluffy tail, for Jake is the mastermind behind the game, coaching the kids with unbelievable strategies and cool tricks. These kids, with bandanas for flags and a hot energy that rivals the Arizona heat, chase the football with such ferocity that it would make a roadrunner jealous. The girls and boys, in their rainbow of team colors, dart across the field, their laughter echoing through the valleys and their cheers reaching up to the wide blue sky. They zigzag, they leap, they twist and they turn. Sometimes there's a tumble, a tumbleweed of kids, and from the dust rises laughter, louder than a coyote's howl. And at the end of each game, they huddle around Jumpy Jake, their faces flushed from the excitement, waiting for his next ingenious plan. In this state called Arizona, the desert is alive with the sounds of kids, their spirit as wild as a stallion's and their joy as bright as a sunflower. The Arizona Flag Football Furies, together with their trusty coach Jumpy Jake, have turned the game of flag football into the greatest western adventure a kid could ever hope for.
