charity flag football tournament

20 teams. One city. The race to raise $2.5 million dollars for Children’s Hospital of Alabama.

10.3.26

John Hunt Park, Huntsville, AL

CELEBRITY HOST: DREW DAVIS

We are on a dedicated mission to raise $2.5 Million for the Children’s Hospital of Alabama by October.

Children’s Hospital of Alabama provides world-class pediatric care, advanced medical research, and lifesaving treatment for thousands of children across our state and region every single year.

This campaign is built on a simple truth: When a community unites behind a shared vision, a massive goal becomes a simple numbers game.

The Huntsville Cup is the premier physical activation anchoring this movement. Every dollar raised through team registrations, vendor partnerships, corporate matching grants, and spectator micro-donations funnels directly into our secure Givebutter campaign hub to fund critical pediatric healthcare.

Our mission

Our Campaign lead

For Drew Davis, leading the $2.5 Million initiative for the Children’s Hospital of Alabama is more than just a fundraising campaign—it is a deeply personal homecoming.

Drew’s story is rooted right here in North Alabama. As a standout athlete at Bob Jones High School, he established a legacy of athletic excellence, discipline, and leadership that carried him to the Division I collegiate level at Western Kentucky University. His relentless drive on the field built a foundation of resilience, but his journey was only beginning.

Taking his talents to the international stage, Drew elevated his career in Mexico's Liga de Fútbol Americano Profesional (LFA), establishing himself as a championship-caliber free safety and earning an LFA title. Yet, among all his achievements on the field in Mexico, his defining moments happened off it. Drew spent extensive time serving and connecting with local youth, bringing unbridled passion, mentorship, and joy to schools and sports clinics across the country. The electrifying energy, hope, and smiles cultivated during his charity work with children in Mexico became the heartbeat of his personal mission.

Now, Drew is bringing that exact same high-octane energy, passion, and global perspective back to his home state of Alabama.

Combining his athletic background, digital reach, and deep-rooted relationship equity across Huntsville, Drew is uniting local businesses, athletes, and families behind a singular cause. For him, giving back to the children in the community that raised him isn't just an option—it’s the ultimate championship run.

How we work

Powered by Innovation: The HypeFan Partnership & $20 Hypestick Model

To turn this $2.5 Million target into an interactive community movement, Drew has partnered directly with HypeFan as the official campaign representative.

At the center of this digital-meets-physical activation is the Hypestick—an intentionally-designed, high-energy fan shaker built to bring stadium-level hype to every sideline, tailgate, and game day.

Through this exclusive partnership, we’ve unlocked a simple, high-impact $20 donation model:

  • Every $20 Contribution made on our campaign hub instantly claims an Alabama or Auburn Hypestick shaker for the donor.

  • 100% Impact Driven: These micro-donations compound rapidly, allowing everyday fans, parents, and community members to fuel the Children’s Hospital campaign $20 at a time.

  • Gamified Fan Experience: At the October 3rd event, Hypestick holders will flood the John Hunt Park sidelines, creating an unforgettable sea of noise, energy, and community pride for every team on the field.
