Miami, FL – The Dolphins do more than just win football games in South Florida as the Fins are undefeated at Hard Rock Stadium. The Dolphins also make sure to recognize all that contribute to youth football in the community through the NFL’s PlayFootball program. This program is designed to encourage youth players to learn, teach and play football in a fun safe environment.
The Junior Dolphins program educates coaches, parents as well as youth of the safety of football while putting an emphasis on character development. At each Dolphins home game, the team will recognize a high school coach and player of the week, a mom of the week, youth player of the week and a team of the week. Award winners will receive tickets to a Miami Dolphins home game, recognition at the game and on social media.
Week 3 Winners:
- High School Coach of the Week: Nate Hudson from South Dade High School. The Bucs are 5-0 this season and came up with a huge win, defeating last year’s defending 6A state champion Miami Northwestern 20-18 in their third contest.
