Wounded Warrior Amputees vs. NFL Alumni

College of San Mateo will host the Wounded Warrior Amputees vs. NFL Alumni flag football game in an historic and inspiring tribute to disabled amputee veterans.

Roger Staubach, nicknamed Captain America, a former star National Football League quarterback will be quarterbacking for the Wounded Warriors. Dick Vermeil will be coaching. Snoop Dogg will be on the sidelines cheering the players on!

Wounded Warrior Amputee Football Team (WWAFT)

The Wounded Warrior Amputee Football Team was established in 2012 and played its first flag football game versus the NFL Alumni prior to Super Bowl XLVI in Indianapolis.

The team is composed of service men and women who served in Afghanistan, Iraq and Vietnam who lost a limb defending this nation’s freedom and security. The team’s mission and purpose is to visibly demonstrate that the loss of a limb does not mean the end of an athletic career and that “Perseverance isn’t a goal; it’s a way of life.”

All proceeds raised during WWAFT fundraisers benefit local and national Disabled Veterans Initiatives. Anyone interested in supporting Wounded Warrior Amputees is asked to please visit wwaft.org.

The Wounded Warrior Amputee Football Team is a non-proft, IRS approved 501c3 charity.
