Kelce Brothers Salute KC Swifties Girls Flag Football Team on New Heights

The praise spotlights a Swift-fueled rise in girls taking up flag football in Kansas City.

Overview

  • The brothers, during Wednesday's New Heights episode, praised the KC Swifties and wished the girls luck in chasing a championship.
  • Jason Kelce argued flag football builds better skills than peewee tackle because kids learn to cut, dodge and catch instead of colliding.
  • The team formed in Kansas City after Taylor Swift's game-day presence inspired fans, and the players wear Chiefs colors with jerseys named for favorite songs.
  • After the podcast shared the segment on Instagram, the KC Swifties reposted the clip and said the shoutout made their dreams come true.
  • Coverage has also noted a 28–8 win and a visit from U.S. women's national flag players, details drawn from social posts that point to rising attention.
