Girl Power Carolinas Flag Football League Launches Fort Mill Season November 2

FORT MILL, S.C. — A new opportunity for young female athletes is coming to town this fall as Girl Power Carolinas, an all-girls NFL FLAG football league, launches its inaugural Fort Mill season on Sunday, November 2. Games will be held weekly at Springfield Elementary School, located at 1691 Springfield Parkway.

Founded by Logan Sandate, Girl Power Carolinas is a female-founded and operated league offering flag football programs for girls in grades K–12. Already established in Mooresville, N.C., the league expands this year into South Carolina with the Fort Mill division.

The league’s mission is to empower girls through competitive and confidence-building sports experiences. With a focus on inclusion, teamwork, and leadership, Girl Power Carolinas is designed to help athletes grow both on and off the field.

Each team will play seven Sunday games, culminating in a league-wide “Super Bowl” championship on the final weekend. Games will begin at 2:00 PM, with team warmups and practices starting at 1:00 PM each Sunday.

Girl Power Carolinas operates in partnership with the NFL’s youth flag football initiative, aiming to provide structured, accessible opportunities for girls to play football in a supportive and encouraging environment.

“Our goal is not just to teach football,” said Sandate. “We want to build confidence, leadership skills, and community for young female athletes across the Carolinas.”

The league has already had a meaningful impact in its current locations. “What makes this league so special isn’t just the sport—it’s the empowerment. It’s girls encouraging girls. It’s learning how to dig deep, get back up, and keep going. It’s having a coach like Logan who believes in them and pushes them to believe in themselves too,” said Carolyn Tsakos, a parent from Mooresville.
