One more week before the Turkey Bowl Playoffs


Three weeks are now in the books, leaving just one night of regular-season action before SportsKlub's Ramara youth flag football season heads into the Turkey Bowl playoffs.


The final stretch will give the young players a chance to chase a bowl, but the bigger goal remains the same as it was on opening night: get everyone involved, give kids opportunities to make plays and make Tuesday nights something they look forward to each week.
