NEW YORK, July 13 -- Millions of children are preparing to play organized flag football in NFL Flag Leagues in their communities and will pretend they are NFL stars. This fall, one lucky winner and 19 friends will play with two real NFL star rookies in the Fox Kids NFL Flag Football promotion.

The winner will choose up sides with Heisman Trophy winner CHARLES WOODSON of the Oakland Raiders and CURTIS ENIS of the Chicago Bears along with special guest player Olympic Gold Medalist CAMMI GRANATO of the USA Women's National Hockey Team.

The "Fox Kids NFL Flag Ziggin' & Zaggin' Sweepstakes" will give one lucky kid the chance to play NFL Flag football with 19 of his or her friends and these three athletes at a field in their hometown. Each kid on the team will also receive a reversible NFL Flag Football Nike team jersey and Nike products.
